As the team most likely to become the next Pats and secure a bye every year - this sucks. It's a lot easier to finish top two than best record every year. Some team always gets red hot like the Ravens this year.

If we’re supposed to become the next dynasty, it should help more than it hurts.

New England was the 1 seed so damn much the last 10-15 years.

17 is uneven.

Will this create more problems in tie breakers?

I can live with 17 games, but one team getting a bye is bullshit. Strength of schedule is too much of a factor that penalizes strong play and benefits mediocrity if only one team earns a bye.

Keep the playoff structure the same.

I’m sure it would have been one or the other if the players opposed the playoffs expanding, but I highly doubt they did. No reason for them to not want it.

I hate this. This is being watered down just like the NBA where everyone gets in the playoffs.

Depth is going to be more important than ever before. 2 more games for 12 playoff teams is huge.

They better put a 2nd bye week in the regular season. No way should a team play 10+ games without a bye. It’s not good for players

What a stupid idea. If anything, they should change the playoff structure so that it's based on record, not divisions. No 8-8 winner of a dogshit division should host an 11-5 wildcard team. No 10-6 team should sit home while a 7-9 division winner gets a pass.

But the ****ers will do what they want.

There are some big differences with NBA though. Way more parity in NFL since you need a lot more depth to have a good team and the salary cap does not allow teams to hoard all the talent. Also the “one and done” nature of NFL playoffs will not guarantee that the best team wins each game. NBA playoffs allow the best team to have a bad game or two and still survive.

NBA also lets in 53% of teams to the playoffs, NFL will still be at 43.75% even with the added teams.

Agree with this. NFC East did not deserve to have a playoff spot. They sure as shit did not deserve to be at home against Seattle. Major BS with that structure.

If they really are going to do 17 game seasons then I want them to have two universal bye weeks and to expand every roster; game day, active, and practice squad. I would prefer that they go: seven games/universal bye/five games/universal bye and trade deadline/five games/playoffs.

NO chance of a universal bye IMHO....why would they want two "dark" weeks in the season?

After a 17 game season all playoff teams should get a bye week.
