A change in Detroit’s proposal from March is for the teams then to be reseeded after the first round. So, in this case, the No. 1 seed would play the lowest-remaining seed in the conference, rather than automatically facing the winner of the No. 4 vs. No. 5 matchup, with the other two remaining teams playing in the other divisional round game.


Wasn't this already in place? #1 always got the lowest remaining seed.

The Lions have a couple of good years after sucking for 60 and now they want to run shite.


And let’s be honest with ourselves here, the brains of that operation left and went to Chicago. This is going to be like when Orgeron lost Joe Brady.

The Lions are stupid for doing this because I think the whole division is going to finish like 9-8 this year




Lions easily win 12 this season

You want a higher seed? Win your division.


Such an overly simplistic and retarded way of thinking.

Why even have athletics anymore? It's all rigged entertainment. Maybe not direct outcomes of games, but by asinine rules and game officials who aren't even competent enough to operate a toaster.

I'm in favor of this change.

Divisions are arbitrary groups of teams. Proper seeding without regard for these arbitrary groups is logical.
