Really, dude? Not sure why you felt the first shot was necessary at all. No one's opposing Goodell just to oppose him, but the vast majority of changes he proposes are unnecessary and stupid. He's the worst commissioner I've ever seen the NFL have, and that'd still be the case if the NFL had more than 3 different commissioners in my experience.
And nothing is broken if a 5 win team happens to get in due to statistical anomaly. The best NFC team will still go to the Super Bowl, and at least 3 of the NFC South teams will have great draft picks to make their team better so that it's not likely to repeat, just as it didn't repeat when the 7 win Seahawks went to the playoffs in 2014. 4 years later, and that weak division is now considered the strongest.
No shot. I agree that Goodell sucks. His changes are not well received. As a result, people seem to automatically view any potential changes with skepticism (and usually rightfully so), hence the comment.
I'm just saying, regardless of public opinion, this is one change I'd be on board with. I'm not OK with teams like the Rams and Seahawks potentially sitting at home in favor of an NFC South team.
An anomaly maybe, but why live with it when there's an easy fix that has little to no effect on the current system?
