Don't be a dumb-ASS. Playoffs have never been about who "has a claim". You set criteria such as conference champs, wildcards, etc then you schedule the games and let the chips fall where they may. Playoffs in every sport never guarantee the best team ends up number 1, especially in single elimination, but it does give you a real champion since they will have won it on the field.Top four conference champs at the most. None of those other losers have even the slightest claim.
It's just like the 3 bears, 4 is too hard, 16 too soft, 8 is just right. It's coming whether you like it or not so might as well get used to the idea.
