Semis were originally on Dec 31, got moved due to bad ratings on NYE

Too late to move the championship due to logistics of NO/Super Dome arrangements

My tinfoil hat theory: The Committee is building a buffer week in the schedule to allow future playoff expansion.

Rational belief: TV scheduling worked out better.

I just read an article proving that's true. The psychologist explained:
'If you're going on the vacation of your life, plan it a month in advance. The anticipation is part of the fun.'

Give the Tigers time to get healthy. I’m thankful for the extra time.
