I like it as is and don't see a need to change. However, this wouldn't be the end of the world either. There's logic to it.
I don't care...I'm about done with the NFL, anyway
Then why the hell are you in an NFL forum.
Denver beat the Chargers last yearno thanks. that would give a potential WC team that happened to have 2 really bad teams in its' division an unfair advantage over a team that had won a really tough division. Last year, the Chargers went 4-0 against Denver and Oakland. If one of those teams had been more competitive, they would have only won 10 or 11 games.
I totally agree. They should be rewarded....with a playoff spot.Division winners should be rewarded.

Careful. You'll raise the ire of the T-GRODs (Then Get Rid Of Divisions). If a team is 9-7 or 8-8 and a division winner it should have no bitch about traveling in the playoffs. It should be grateful it's in the playoffs with such a mediocre record. Case closed. This is why I tip my hat to the NBA. Do people realize the Orlando Magic (42-40) was a 7-seed (out of 8) in this year's playoffs? THEY WON THEIR DIVISION. Did anybody cry about it?
If you suggesting the possibility an NFC team plays versus a AFC team before the super bowl, then congratulations you just came up with a dumber idea than the OP did.

Yes.Does anyone give a fuck about the NBA?
I'm all for getting rid of the conferences, but I think that would be more feasible if they cut down the divisions to 6. The tiebreakers would be more complicated, but it would be doable. It'd take some getting used to.Well there wouldn't be conferences if you just took the best 12.
How do you have a Superbowl without Conferences? This isnt Golf. There is no way they would ever do away with Conferences. All the major sports has the this side vs. that side for their Championship game/Series.I'm all for getting rid of the conferences, but I think that would be more feasible if they cut down the divisions to 6.

2018 would look something like this:
(1)NO (13-3)
(2)LAR (13-3)
(3)KC (12-4)
(4)CHI (12-4)
(12)PIT (9-6-1) @ (5)LAC (12-4)
(11)SEA (10-6) @ (6)NE (11-5)
(10)IND (10-6) @ (7)HOU (11-5)
(9)DAL (10-6) @ (8)BAL (10-6)
