2) Or whichever conference won -- each team in the conference would get one extra draft pick after all teams have drafted (ie. 8th round)
3) Or whichever conference won would host the SuperBowl (ie. give them some home field advantage). ie. San Diego = AFC, New Orleans == NFC)
etc..


These are just minor advantages, but perhaps just enough to give a little incentive to the teams/players.

Back in the day winning was enough motive for them to play hard. With that said the players also didn't make that much money.
