Let's say they add a bye, so there will be another week of added TV revenue that gets spread out. 5.8% increase.

I don't know what the playoff games bring, but add that to the pot.

But hey, they will give the players .5% of that. ****ing pathetic.
Well, the players would get 48.5% of that, not .5%

I’m not against your thought process, just saying it’s not that drastically in favor of the owners

NFL not dumb they trying to get the super bowl the Sunday before president’s day. Hello 3 day weekend for most.

Less teams getting a bye is HORRIBLE for us.

Jones may be retained but not because of your equation. When revenue goes up, players agents will simply demand more.....as they should.

Adds randomness to who the champion is. Less likely for the best team to actually win the championship.

Yeah, but under the old system it was “get a top two seed, it’s that simple.”

Fewer byes for great teams=more playoff games=more chances to get upset.

Do you think the Patriots would’ve been as successful over these last couple decades if only 1 team got a bye? They were the 2 an awful lot as well.

Just the opposite. Now the 1 seeds have an easier path to the SB.

Who gives a **** tbh. We got Mahomes

cdcox 02-19-2020 07:48 PM
Actually it probably helps the odds of the one seed, since it increases the odds that the two seed will get knocked off before the conference championship.

I guess the positive is that it will force this team to stay focused on every game. I felt like the team was pretty unfocused against Detroit and Tennessee during the regular season. They squeaked past the Lions in one of the ugliest wins you'll ever see. And the sloppy lack of focus bit them in the butt in Nashville.

Agreed.

I don't remember many complaints about the way the current playoffs are setup. Only complaints you hear are how Pats always have an easy road to the the playoffs. this doesn't address that at all.

Correct.

If we get the one we can pretty much punch our ticket.

Anything else, even the 2, and it’s going to be MUCH harder than it ever has been before.

It figures that right when the Patriots get bad and the Chiefs get good, they take away a bye and add an extra playoff team. Good way to protect the Pats’ records.
