Wait, they had a military coup in Gabon last year. I'm just now reading about it. Maybe it's not safe to go to the game that Roger will place there. I hope it's a couple of teams that are expendable, maybe a Raiders-broncos game or something.

But Goodell would welcome that, he said, as he envisions a Presidents Day weekend built around the Super Bowl on Sunday night.
Since he's so concerned about what fans think: THE ****ING SUPER BOWL SHOULD BE PLAYED ON SATURDAY NIGHT.

They just need to make the day after a national holiday. Production on that day sucks ass anyway.

I heard this idea before that if you go to 18 games, You have to sit everyone 1 game along with the bye week. It would make some interesting strategy.. Sit Mahomes and the rest of the starters together for a game on offense or mix and match?

Stop. Go back to 16, too.

I like the concept, where the players play a 16-game season but the team plays an 18-game season.

The more I think about it, you could then get rid of bye weeks during the season. The team plays every week and you rest the players for a couple of weeks of their/coaches' choosing.

That would be fun for everyone but the fans who buy tickets to see Patrick Mahomes II and then sees him in street clothes at kickoff. But the fans are the least important part of the NFL, so the league won't care.

Think about it, 18 games means you can likely add a second bye now we have a 20 week season.

Expanded playoffs and all of the sudden the season has an extra month to make money.

great.
Like the NBA, NHL, and MLB seasons are not already over long---lets join them.

Why doesnt he just make the playoffs double elimination.

Yep.

Watering down the NFL has only made it worse.

Get rid of the 7th seed too.

The NFL peaked in the mid 80s through the Patriots first run.

Well of course. An odd number of games never made sense.

At this point, it's all luck as to which teams stay healthy enough to win.

PAChiefsGuy 04-26-2024 06:56 PM

There's not enough good QBs out there to expand the league. Stupid ****ing idea.

If they go to 18 games, they need to go to at least two bye weeks. Bye weeks should be scheduled prior to a team’s Thursday night game or after an international game. Rosters should be expanded and IR should probably be updated. Similar to MLB’s IL.

Do away with the practice squad. Everyone is active and everyone suits up.

Always thought they needed to expand the roster number

17 games is too much...
