How is the AFC South unfair?

2009
3 teams at .500 or better (12-4 Colts, 9-7 Texans, 8-8 Titans..plus the Jaguars were 7-9) only the Colts made the playoffs
2008
3 teams at .500 or better (13-3 Titans, 12-4 Colts, 8-8 Texans) and 2 made the playoffs (Titans and Colts)
2007
3 teams at .500 or better (13-3 Colts, 11-5 Jaguars, 10-6 Titans) and all 3 made the playoffs
2006
3 teams at .500 or better (12-4 Colts, 8-8 Jags and Titans) only the Colts made the playoffs
2005
2 teams at .500 or better (14-2 Colts, 12-4 Jaguars) only the colts made the playoffs

So its been since 2005 that the division didn't have more than 2 teams finish .500 or better. Take a look at the other divisions in football and you'll see thats above average. Its no more unfair than the AFC East where the Patriots win the division almost every year other than the year Brady was hurt and the Bills/Dolphins/Jets sucked on a regular basis.

2005
2 teams at .500 or better (10-6 Patriots, 9-7 Dolphins) only Patriots made playoffs
2006
2 teams at .500 or better (12-4 Patriots, 10-6 Jets) both made playoffs
2007
1 team at .500 or better (Patriots 16-0)
2008
3 teams at .500 or better (Dolphins 11-5, Patriots 11-5, Jets 9-7) only Dolphins made the playoffs
2009
2 teams at .500 or better (Patriots 10-6, Jets 9-7) both made the playoffs.
