Saxum Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 NFL will also need to negotiate with broadcasters unless league already has clauses in contract which broadcasters pay per game available to them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProcessImproverMan Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 The NFL would really need to consider expanding the roster to say 58-60 players then to account for this. Teams already are struggling to make it through 17 game seasons which is really hurting playoff quality football and hurting the remaining games. I think the draft should expand with this to allow more teams to develop more young talent with the extra roster space so perhaps teams can load manage more effectively.

Go back to 16 games and increase to two bye weeks. The greed of the league and players, since they have to agree to it, has no bounds. Do you think people b*tched and moaned this much when the league went from 14 games to 16 games in 1978? There probably wasn't really anyone complaining about greed then. They all just went with the flow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 I’ve always felt you should play every team in your conference 1 time. 18 games allows you to play every team in your conference 1 time and in your division 2x. Sets up perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There probably wasn't really anyone complaining about greed then. They all just went with the flow 16 games and no bye week from 1978-1990. They could actually hit people back then. The game is much easier on the body today. They basically don’t practice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sets up perfectly. That might be a cool way to do it. Like MLB used to be, only way to play a team in the other conference/league is the championship game. I'm pretty sure they will just add another out of conference game based on standings like they do with game 17 now. It will just even it out to a home/away every season instead of rotating that each year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregg Posted July 24 Share Posted July 24 3 minutes ago, Buffalo_Stampede said: Don’t need it. Would make the Super Bowl even bigger. Interesting scheduling idea. It would be like what baseball used to have with the AL and NL playing only teams in their league before interleague play took over. I like the idea as divisional games and then conference games are more important to the division/playoff races. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
