But I can imagine how you would skew the points system.  For example the Jets lost 17 more games than the Bengals and had half as many winning seasons, but you would probably have them ahead of the Bengal because they won a couple of playoff games.

See, I disagree. Some of the teams with worse records than the Bengals also won several playoff games and got way closer to a Super Bowl than we have. We'd have to create a system to find out who is right.

I could see how you would skew a system to favor regular season wins over all else. For example, the Giants have 12 fewer regular season wins than the Bengals, but also a Super Bowl win. You'd probably also put the Rams below the Bengals, despite their recent success and SB run. You'd probably do the same with the 49ers and Panthers, who have both made it to a SB despite having a worse regular season record than the Bengals over the last 10 years.
