I appreciate you at least giving your logic behind choosing the 2nd option though.As I said I'll take 3 weeks of happiness over 1. As you have admitted neither scenario would leave you satisfied.
As yes, in the end, either of those scenarios will be a failure for this team. A team that is making the playoffs for the fifth straight year, started 8-0, has had relatively few injuries, and has a dozen or so players having career years should be held to a higher standard than simply making the playoffs and being bounced before the conference championship game.
I can understand folks picking option A, if they would consider a wildcard win a success.
