The NFL Is Thinking About Adding Another Wild Card Playoff Team to Each Conference Next Season

The NFL's Wild Card Weekend was pretty, well, wild this year. But the league reportedly wants to make it even wilder in 2015.

Nothing has been confirmed as of yet by the NFL (in fact, they've shot down the initial reports with this statement). But according to The Dan Patrick Show, the NFL is very interested in adding one more wild card playoff team to each conference next season. It would, in theory, add two more games to Wild Card Weekend (only one team from each conference would get a bye) and make the playoffs even more exciting.

We're betting that Cowboys fans love this idea (they probably wouldn't mind if the NFL added, like, six more wild card teams to each conference). But a quick scan of Twitter shows that not everyone is excited about more NFL playoff football:

Where do you stand here? After this past weekend, we wouldn't mind seeing an extra two games of playoff football next year. But at the same time, we don't want to see teams that are 8-8 or 7-9 in the playoffs every single season. It'll ruin the playoff experience for everyone.
