NFL VP of Broadcast: We gave the Chiefs hardest schedule in the league
That is some bullshit. Yes we got Mahomes and Taylor but jfc we don't need to play all these national games on short weeks.





Quote:
“Good teams win, bad teams struggle,” said North. “You could give a team that doesn’t have a great roster, the quote-unquote easiest schedule, and they’re still going to go 4-13. You could give the Kansas City Chiefs the worst possible schedule, and some have been saying we did, right? They’re playing every day of the week except a Tuesday. They’ve got multiple short weeks and catch Buffalo off their bye, and Taylor Swift is gonna be there. Like, we maybe gave the Chiefs the hardest schedule in the league. I suspect they’re gonna be there come playoff time.

“These are the kind of things that we’re trying to think about — not just maximizing viewership, fan interest, and attendance and those kind of things, but what are the truly competitive inequities that we really need to be focused on and really need to avoid? I’m not sure we’ve really found that yet.”

“They’ve been our bell cow for a while, right?” North explained of the Chiefs. “They’re kind of used to carrying our water for some of these unique opportunities here. You think about that Peacock playoff game last year. If you want to make Peacock a destination for an NFL playoff game, well, put a Chiefs game there. If Amazon wants to continue to try to build Black Friday into an event, even though it’s not a national holiday, but can we turn it into one — where instead of going to the mall, we’re gonna stay home and watch a game on television at 3 o’clock in the afternoon? Put a Chiefs game there.

“You want to make Christmas on Netflix a thing? Put a Chiefs game there. You can’t go to that well over and over again. There are only so many Chiefs games and obviously, a lot of other really good teams and good stars and storylines in this league. But the Chiefs definitely were not surprised by their national television windows and some of the windows we decided to use them.”

The 3-games-in-10-days thing is bullshit, but overall the Chiefs actually got screwed less than last year. Last year they had the worst rest disadvantage schedule in the league, by a wide margin. It was historically bad. This year the league decided it was time to **** the 49ers instead. Guess they're growing tired of them and want to see somebody else step up on the NFC.

All the more reason to add a 2nd bye week. Every team should have one in the first and second half of the season.

Weeks 5-8 and 12-15 would be ideal

From the Sharp article:

Quote:
The Ravens are at +16 days of net rest edge.

That is the #1 largest net rest edge in my database’s history, which dates back 35 years to 1990.

The Ravens’ net rest edge is the largest in modern NFL history, and I’d venture to guess full NFL history as well.

If you actually listen to it, he's not saying they gave the Chiefs the hardest schedule. He's parroting other people who are saying that because of the days of the week they're playing. And it's all in the context of making a point that the schedule isn't going to define who the good and bad teams are (a lame point, of course, given that it can shave around the edges in a meaningful way).

This all day long.

If you want these teams to play on shot weeks and travel over seas then add the second bye which gives you another week of football with the same number of games

Yeah, and the biggest thing that stands out to me is the "too bad" attitude. Basically states that the Chiefs have come to expect getting screwed because they are such a marketing force, so they won't complain too much.

- Not everything that's ever done is done with bad intentions.

- Warren Sharp's graph is just as meaningless as last year, because all it says is a few teams have a couple extra games where they play a team coming off a bye or the other way around, and everyone else is pretty much equal. The league doesn't hate the 49ers or love the Ravens, life isn't fair sometimes and it's not even that big of a gap if you think about it for more than 5 seconds.

- Scheduling anomalies exist for many basic, obvious reasons beyond the NFL is just a bunch of evil ****ers who spend their time on every bad intention you can make up in hindsight... and one of those is the Chiefs are in really high demand across all platforms for all holidays, prime time slots, etc.
