How the game was determined

Just as with any major change to the NFL schedule, there was considerable debate among owners about whether or not to add a playoff game. Some owners were worried about overextending their players and causing injuries by having them play an additional game. Other owners were concerned about the effect on ticket sales and television ratings if there were two NFL games played on the same day. In the end, though, the majority of owners thought that the benefits of adding a playoff game outweighed the risks.
