The way things are now, we have 20 teams and only 8 make the playoffs. I was wondering if maybe we should increase the number of teams in the playoffs. Darren will have to educate me on the settings in the sim, I'm not sure if there's an option between what we have now, and one where 16 teams make the playoffs. Ideally I would want to see something in between, but I'm not sure it's possible.
Is 16 better than 8? I'm not sure, but I think it at least merits discussing.

It's either 4 per conference or 8 per conference unfortunately. Ideally for our current number of teams it would be 6 teams per, with the division winners getting first round byes. But the sim doesn't allow it.
Four or eight? I'd like to stick with four. If we do eight it almost the long regular season pointless with 80% of the teams making it in. Heck, a team could be rebuilding and still make it in that way.

16 is simply too many.
I think 8 is okay. It means making the playoffs is a big deal, and not just something expected.

I wouldn't mind if we could go up to 12, but 16's too many. We're not the CFL here, after all. 8's fine.

12 seems to be the best option with the top 2 in each division getting a free pass to the 2nd round, meaning 3-6 battle it out and the bottom two face off against the top 2.
