I understand the logic, it definitely makes sense. However, I think they definitely needs to be a reward for winning your division. If a wild-card team has a record of 12-4, chances are the other two teams in the division were terrible. Would it shock anyone if the NFC East Champ next year is 9-7 or 10-6? Wouldn't shock me as I could see all 4 teams beating the $h!t out of each other in their match-ups and splitting the games down the middle. I would be p!ssed if the Giants went 10-6, won the division, but had to go on the road for the first week and play Chicago who won the wild-card at 11-5, yet had Minnesota and Detroit win 8 games between them.
