Only so many ways to slice and dice an onion. If and when I do co-opt ideas, I gladly give acknowledgment. Quote
Mango Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 I have always thought the higher seed should host every year. No different than any other American sport. 1 Quote

The NFL should just buck up and and restart that junior league they had over there some years back, and stop screwing the fan base and players with this traveling circus crap. 4 1 1 1 Quote

That's too big of a advantage. I don't have data to back it up, but I'm guessing home field is a much bigger advantage in football than other sports? Quote

But it is more important to a one and done game too. Worth noting that home field advantage in the NFL has been on the decline since before COVID. Quote

Actually, it the opposite. here’s the home team win rates in north american professional sports: MLS: 69% NBA: 63% NHL: 59% NFL: 58% MLB: 54% However, teams hosting the SB in their own stadiums are 2-0. https://www.chicagobooth.edu/review/home-field-advantage-facts-and-fiction#:~:text=In basketball%2C NBA teams win,American football%2C it's 57.6%.

Bills!Win! Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 With our luck that would be the year we would go to the superbowl Quote
Freak-O Posted October 15, 2023 Posted October 15, 2023 Stupid idea and it will never be done. The overseas games should only be played between two teams coming off a bye week. If done like that the teams could travel a week in advance, settle in and actually enjoy the trip, not just fly over, play jet lagged and go back. Quote

Lot of misdirected anger at Goodell. I suppose I should have combed throw all your post before giving my uninformed opinion. He's a great guy 1 Quote
