according to your logic, it'd be better to not lose in the playoffs at all.
the stealers had a better season than the jets last season by a microscopically small margin
their record was 1 game better (by virtue of a much easier division)
they advanced 1 additional round in the playoffs (but both teams won 2 playoff games - the jets won both on the road however)
the two teams went 1-1 against each other, with a combined score of 41 to 41
neither team won the super bowl
the difference is i didn't get hyped up for 2 weeks leading into the super bowl only to get let down
i did however, get to enjoy a highly successful jets season that left me plenty of hope and confidence for the future
on the flip side, the lions went 6-10
how is that comparable
