Skip Wood and Jarrett Bell, of USA Today, report Kansas City Chiefs president Carl Peterson wants to propose expanding the amount of playoff teams from 12 to 14. As many as three teams could finish the 2005 season with a 10-6 record and miss the postseason. Peterson said, "I'm going to propose ... an expansion of the number of playoff teams. I think it shorts the fans, the franchises and the cities to have teams with successful seasons but still not qualify for the playoffs." Since the playoffs last expanded in 1990 to 12 teams, only three teams have finished with 10 wins and missed the postseason.
