The 2007 Patriots were arguably the best team in NFL history but so what? They didn't prove it or earn it on the field when they lost to a worse team. No one is gonna go back and retroactively grant them the Super Bowl title. If the NFL worked like college football in the 80's, some combination of Packers, Giants and Patriots would have been the split champions.

You do realize that OOC games are won on the field, not on paper, rght?

By going 11-1 compared to 8-4, ECU proved it on the field three more times than Fresno. But we're supposed to give a playoff spot to Fresno because they won more in 'conference'? Screwy.
