NFL fans are sick of tiebreakers determining the wild card teams, so they're hoping the NFL changes the rules in the future to have a playoff system to determine teams who are tied. Heading into the final day of NFL play, the Jets, Ravens, Broncos, Dolphins, Steelers, Texans, Jaguars, and probably some more than I forgot are fighting for the two wild card spots in the AFC.
With so many teams competing for those two spots, a tie between multiple teams will inevitably occur. When that happens, a computer will figure out the lucky teams through complicated tiebreakers that nobody really understands. The two selected teams that the computerized tiebreakers randomly select will get the privilege of losing to the New England Patriots and Cincinnati Bengals in the first round of the playoffs. The fans want the teams who are tied to battle it out on the field, rather than through computers. Until then, they'll just have to live with the team whose opponents had the toughest schedule in conference play or some random tiebreaker like that.
