GRHater69 Posted August 23, 2019 Posted August 23, 2019 You younger guys don't know how easy we have it these days. There used to be 6 preseason games and only 14 reg season games. That was murder to sit through all those meaningless games especially when season-ending injuries happened. Personally I think the starters should see at least some game action. Wait until weeks 1 & 2 of the regular season and look at the injury reports. You see a lot of bad things happen because some of these guys are just not in game shape. 1

GunnerBill Posted August 23, 2019 Posted August 23, 2019 I think an 18 game season will happen. With a roster increase to maybe 56 or something like that, a minimum guarantee % on contracts and a second bye week. So a 20 week regular season and teams have 2 byes. Might not quite get there on this next CBA but its coming. 1
Nick the Greek Posted August 23, 2019 Posted August 23, 2019 When I had seasons I was forced to buy the preseason games at full price. seems like a winner for the owners to me!! 1

Marv Levy Posted August 23, 2019 Posted August 23, 2019 All the things I want changed, the NFL won't do. So he's my list anyway. •Make it two preseason games and have two scrimmages as well. That is plenty to know who makes the roster. •Get rid of Thursday night football. They are diluting the product. That includes the opening season kickoff game. Keep it Sundays and Monday night only. •Get rid of the Hall of Fame game. It blows!! •Keep it at 16 games •Wish the league would have the Superbowl the following week after the AFC and NFC Championship Games. I don't like the extra week wait but I know they throw the PRO BOWL in between it. Whatever! Thanks for listening. GO BILLS!!
