using the Pro Bowl as a barometer for anything other than the average weight a honolulu hooker had to deal with is ridiculous....neither team is trying to win, they are all just trying not to get hurt, with the exception of the late Sean Taylor, that was trying to make a point....

I would say that's damn near comparable. Maybe the AFC was better in the 5-8 range. OK. That doesn't mean the NFC was/is pathetic. It means they (the AFC) had better mediocre teams. OK. Which leads me to a new conclusion.... you are arguing for the sake of arguing. OK. I'm done with this thread.

The Cowboys went against a pathetic AFC East and the Packers went against the pathetic AFC West. That was the luck of the draw, but says nothing about how those teams would have done facing an AFC schedule. The top 7 AFC teams where better teams than the top of the West. The Giants simply had karma on their side in the Super Bowl. Bully for them.
