I think it makes the NFL better, true it'll blow a bit when your team(s) are left out but overall the competitiveness makes for good games all season.
The playoffless college system on the other hand is brutal for fans because first and foremost, a run of the mill season has about 8-10 national championship contenders which takes out 100 teams before the first kickoff, and another 10 unless a few unlikely scenerios take place.
I guess it would be easier for fans of the other 3 sports, you've got 80+ games during which, at the very least, you've got hope for about a month or two. With football you can pretty much tell within 2 games if you're team's gonna be crap.
