As far as the rest of them not doing much in the playoffs in a while it might sound like an oversimplification but just look at the QB situations. The Steelers were trotting Ben out there into his late 30’s then had Mason Rudolph last year. Lamar seems to choke every January like clockwork. Cleveland should have never moved on from Baker as he’s won playoff games for both them and Tampa at this point. But they’re the Browns so ***** up at QB is what they do.

But I get it, 5-2 is 5-2. It’s going to buy Zac a hell of a long leash with this ownership. At the very least he needs to make some major changes like giving up play calling or firing Lou if they keep trending in the wrong direction.

I hear you, this division is archaic. I get your premise about the others too, but it just seems to me that the method of play is outdated compared to the rest of the league. Every year a team from North grinds everyone into hamburger during the season, and then get bounced early.... except for the Bengals recently. Like I noted, those numbers go back ten years. 

Agree on that last paragraph for sure.
