A content-fork of List of NFL franchise post-season streaks - a blank-and-redirect was reverted. There is some other trivia here (each team's longest ever streak of consecutive 7-win seasons) - I don't think that needs to be on the encyclopedia at all, but it certainly shouldn't be on this page.

Keep per WP:LISTN but trim the page down to only playoff appearances only. There is a lot of fluff in this article that needs to be split out. Swordman97 talk to me 22:33, 4 December 2021 (UTC)- Changing vote to Merge per Paul Macdonald. Swordman97 talk to me 23:36, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
- Delete interesting info, and the work shows a good deal of thought and effort. However... because the list is based on the "current" status, that seems to be more "newsy" and less "encyclopedia-ey" to me. If we were talking about all time playoff appearances (such as NFL playoffs#NFL playoff appearances) that would be different in my eyes. But a "current" appearance will likely change every season. The page has some significant development to it which would require upkeep every year... forever. Therefore, I'm going with WP:NOTNEWS or even ignore all rules because deletion of this article will make wikipedia better. It is my hope that enthusiastic supporters of this article will try another wiki that might be more suitable for this type of information. I respect the work and like the idea, I just think it would have a better home someplace else.-- Paul McDonald ( talk) 03:31, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
- Merge into NFL playoffs. Agreed with Paulmcdonald that this is interesting and this info could provide additional context to the NFL playoffs article. Royal Autumn Crest ( talk) 20:05, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
- Delete/merge to List of NFL franchise post-season streaks, unnecessary content fork. Reywas92 Talk 14:42, 6 December 2021 (UTC)
