I don't think the owners would want dark weeks in the middle of the season

Just imagine, they are about to dip their greedy hands in gambling.
So let's tally up the money. 16 more games, check, two extra MASSIVELY bet playoff games, check. I love football, but I woulnd't cry if each of these owners lost it all. **** them. |

Lack of star power in the playoffs due to injuries is very exciting.

Owners increase their direct revenue by 6% for the extra regular season game.
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. |

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

At 48% the players receive 3% per game (48% divided by 16 games). At 48.5 the players receive 2.85% per game (48.5% divided by 17 games). |

The owners are pushing for more games and that puts more stress on the health of the players. If they want more money then they can give something up for it, and I'm fine with an extra bye week and expanded rosters as the exchange because I think that will directly improve player health.
