Not in my opinion.
The playoffs should be reserved for the best teams that earned the right to compete for the championship. We have teams that get hot late in the season winning championships despite a fairly mediocre season on a fairly consistent basis.

Expanding the playoffs would probably just make this more likely.

They still have to beat the cream of the crop in the playoffs to get to the Super Bowl - so what's your point?

Ok but some of those might be the best team but for whatever reason (injuries) they may have struggled early in the season but came on towards the end of the season.

But regardless of the reason for that mediocrity, teams should not be rewarded for it.

8 teams would be ideal.
Unfortunately, crappy teams can win crappy divisions. So I'd give a little and add a wild card in each conference.

Wouldn't that take at least one of the SB's away from the Giants?

I wonder how many wild cards have won it all.
So basicly you like the idea of division winners only. This would probably do away with a bye week for any playoff team. It is also punishing teams that play in good divisions. Where the 2cd place team in a division could have a 10-6 or 11-5 record and stay at home while a team that is 7-9 or 8-8, definition of mediocrity, gets in as usual. That seems a little harsh, understandable but nonetheless harsh.

Just award every team a super bowl ring at the end of the year so no feelings are hurt and everyone is treated equally and fairly.
