Heck, I wonder if 7 pts is enough... you really want to come up to Buffalo/NE/Denver etc. and play out in the elements come playoff time? You don't think that gives teams a decided edge? In the NFL the avg score per team is like 17-20 pts, and homefield (in terms of Vegas) is generally worth about 3 pts, in the Frenzy, the average score is more than 5 times what the NFL's is, and our homefield edge is only twice.
I think the 7 pts is fair to reward to the top 2 seeds. Sucks being on the other end, but it's just another hurdle that you have to cross (I did it last year... it's easily done). All that being said, I definatly feel better with it in my back pocket... but hopefully it won't impact the game.
Again, g'luck this week, it should be a great matchup... I suspect Julius is gonna tear it up for you against a terrible Eagles Rush D next week!
