First off, I note the sarcasm…
That said…...
The Ravens lost to the
Eagles
Houston
Pittsburgh
Denver
Washington
Cincinnati
They were 1-4 their last 5 games of the REGULAR season.
So no, they weren't the best team in the league last year. They just won the last 4 games of the POST SEASON and were rewarded as if they are the best team in the league
So it's just like the countdown. You can test, mess around, play the system, and just squeak in, then as long as you are good the last couple of outings you are rewarded as the best.
Pretty lame if you ask me, and definitely doesn't reward the best team, athlete, driver, etc.
Personally, I think the only playoff system that somewhat works is multi game playoffs. Like baseball, basketball, hockey, etc.
