I think what you do is you just define the best team as the team that wins the playoffs. Otherwise, since everyone will have their own definition, it will be  impossible to reach agreement.

Well, that's just tautological. Who's the best team? The one that won the playoffs. Why are they the best team? Because the won the playoffs. It's begging the question, and I think you can also take a cursory examination and show that any reasonable (and non-tautological) definition of "best team" makes it clear that the best team won't always win. Football is a probabilistic game, and the better team doesn't always win.
