Detmer, i agree Packers are one of the best two teams out there. I think they played a bad game. That was not the issue. I said the best two teams LEFT. The Packers are clearly not left. Unless you consider them left out. If you still do not understand i am sure someone here would be willing to explain it to you in braille cause even Helen Keller would have gotten this.
God damn you are fluffing retarded. The point I made is the logic of the best two teams winning is demonstrably flawed. In a playoff the odds of the best team winning decreases since there are more chances for an upset. If the best team has a 99% chance of winning every game, then if there is a one game playoff they have a 99% chance of being the champions and if there is a three game playoff they have about a 97% chance of winning. The point about the Packers is that the best team in the playoffs already lost so the reasoning of the best team winning is clearly not some cast iron metric. If the extent of your analysis is "these are the best two teams thus the winner should easily win the Super Bowl" then that is sad commentary on what you know about the history of NFL playoffs and football game outcomes in general (and perhaps the relative quality of the teams left in play).
I fully understand what you were saying. The problem is you don't understand me.
