What makes it any more 'true' than the system already in place?Because that's actually a true playoff system. And you don't allow losing teams to keep playing. You just allow everyone to play 3 games. The losing teams would get weeded out just the same.
You are going to eliminate teams from the playoffs on a tiebreaker? Thats crazy.But if you have 3 games you wouldn't be 2-2. And even if it came down to that, you would use tie breakers the same way we do now. You continue single elimination right after the group stage.
How is this any different really? The Giants just went 3-0 in the playoffs.
Then just reduce the number of playoff teams.When you get past the group stage that's when you are one and done.
This doesn't solve you supposed afront of a team getting knocked out by playing a bad game.
It doesn't prevent great teams from advancing. It doesn't stop good underdogs from advancing. It prevents one great team being completely knocked out because of one crappy game out of the 16 they played all year. Or because of one bad call by a referee.
No it doesn't, because you still have win or go home, you are just having an added round to reduce the number of teams in the real playoffs.
