I think the NFL should be the NFPCL. National Football Patriots Cowboys League.
Baseball seems to have more drama and more variety.

That's true nowadays. But it certainly wasn't necessarily the case in the past. Consider: the New York Yankees won the AL pennant 15 out of 18 years (1947-64), winning 10 of 15 World Series.

When it finally gets up to the first place team there's a best of seven series to determine the champion.

Sounds like the KBO playoff format, which currently is:
1st round: 5th vs. 4th, best-of-3, with the 4th place club starting the series with a 1 win advantage
2nd round: winner of 1st round vs. 3rd place, best-of-5
3rd round: winner of 2nd round vs. 2nd place, best-of-5
4th round: winner of 3rd round vs. 1st place, best-of-7
