ODDS TO WIN THE AFC, NFC and SB LII
-
My wife's family would argue that any Championship before the SuperBowl era does not count. So, everything the Browns won before that era does not count, regardless of how much I try to argue. So to put it mildy, they even have me believing that our wins don't count. It's sick, but that's the way it is.
Your wife's family are fuyucking idiots.

The “Odds to Win” wager in pro football is also commonly referred to as a future wager. Bettors must correctly select a team to win an event that takes place a later time. The money wagered will be tied up until there is an outcome and bettors will receive fixed odds when they place the wager. The future odds are normally updated on a weekly basis and wagers can be placed throughout the season.
To figure out your Win Amount, take the odds and multiply by the amount wagered. Ex. Green Bay (8/1) to win the NFC Championship. The Packers are listed as an 8/1 betting choice to win the NFC Championship. If you wager $100 on Green Bay to win the NFC and they capture the championship, then you would win $800 (8 ÷ 1 x 100). You would collect $900, which includes your win and stake ($100).

6 is not the operative number. The operative number is 13. Those are the number of Championship the Green Bay Packers have won. 6 doesn't even match the number of titles the Browns have won.
Packers 13
Bears 9
Browns/Giants 8 each.
The only thing being in the last 51 years with the expanded NFL it is much harder to win a championship and if you're under 58 or maybe 60 you've never experienced anything but the Super Bowl era. But we old farts older than 60 love to reminisce about the good old days and single bar helmets and all that stuff.

Actually...it may be much easier now to win a Championship...in terms of a teams chances to win. What pct. of teams make the postseason? 12 out of 32 teams or 37.5%.
But take like 1964 or 1965....only 2 teams in the NFL made the postseason. That is 14.2% of the teams. You can't win the postseason if you don't get into the post season. And a team is now about 2.5 times more likely to make the post season than they were then.

Seven teams wouldn't even make up 2/3 of either the AFC or NFC, it's grueling now compared to then to win the championship.

Uh....fuyuck NO. ONLY the TOP ONE made the postseason...see below.
Seven teams wouldn't even make up 2/3 of either the AFC or NFC, it's grueling now compared to then to win the championship.
For a team than to have had the same chance as now, they would have had to have had 6 teams make the playoffs.
You are also forgetting the AFL. There were 14 teams in the NFL....and 8 more in the AFL...a total of 22 teams, and only 4 made the playoffs
EastBuffalo Bills*1220.85740024215811.3-1.49.94.65.3Boston Patriots1031.769365297684.9-0.64.32.61.7New York Jets581.385278315-37-2.60.3-2.3-3.61.3Houston Oilers4100.286310355-45-3.20.4-2.8-0.8-2.0WestSan Diego Chargers*851.615341300412.9-0.42.60.91.7Kansas City Chiefs770.500366306604.3-0.53.82.81.0Oakland Raiders572.417303350-47-3.40.4-2.9-1.4-1.6Denver Broncos2111.154240438-198-14.11.8-12.4-5.1-7.3
So that brings it up to 18% of teams who make the playoffs, compared to 37.5 today. If you don't get in, you cannont win.
To illustrate it more dramatically.....IF the rules about making the playoffs were the same as they were in those days NONE of the following teams would have ever won the Super Bowl....
1980 Raiders
1997 Broncos
2000 Ravens
2005 Steelers
2007 Giants
2010 Packers
If you don't get in...you can't win...and these teams would have NEVER made the playoffs....and would never had a chance to win the title.

You're reinforcing what I said 6 of 51 Super bowls were won by wild card teams out of 32 teams not 14 , much harder to even make it to the final two now.
Maybe we should set up a poll on this one and let everyone vote? Eh?

No, polls like that are for fuyucking idjits. And, again...you are ignoring your own question, which is: Is it harder to win a championship now than then. Which question has to take into account the path that one must run to win that title. That path is now MUCH wider...and much easier to get on....even if it takes longer to negotiate that path.
Like the lottery...you can't win if you don't buy a ticket. A lot more teams are now allowed to buy tickets.

Back then your chances of being in the championship game are 1 in 7 in each division not 1 in 16 and after going through several rounds of elimination games. Plus if you were among the top one or two maybe three at most teams in each division is was much easier to play for the NFL CHAMPIONSHIP.
Uh....fuyuck NO. ONLY the TOP ONE made the postseason...see below.
Yes only the TOP ONE makes it in either 7 or 16......which is harder 7 or 16?
Geeezzz Gip you talk like a lawyer or judge.
(I've known quite a few, my brother and cousin were both baliffs while going to law school, my one brother's godfather was a judge, my neighbor in my last house was a judge, one brother did political signs for about 20 years many judges were clients, one guy and later his son who lived across the street were/are judges......and the real test I used to golf with lawyers, some were sitting judges, one cheated like hekl, but he was a relative

But....again....it is an easier path to get there. If you are a WC...you have a chance to win the SB......6 have done it since 1980. And 5 have done it the last 20 years. That is 1/4th of all winners. If you don't get in you chances of NOT winning the SB are exactly 100%.

Easier path through a series of physically draining games and after a 16 game season not 12 or 14 to end up with two teams? I don't think so.

That's stupid. If they don't count the Steelers titles in the 70s don't count either on account of how fully 1/8 of the league was not in existence at that time

No need to be concerned about what stupid Steeler fan thinks....they ALL count. Yes, while they all count.....I say this over and over again: the only ones that matter are the last one and the next one. Every other one is just part of history.
