Standardize the cap increase/reduce cap grumpiness? I think standardizing cap increases year over year to a specific amount or percentage would be a good practice. It would keep continuity of the league while also avoiding cap "debates" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forget what I said before. There are no byes. Homefield advantage goes to the higher seed but only for the first round. I think you said before that the current structure doesn't incentivize teams to continue playing after they've locked up a playoff spot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're going top 6 for playoffs that would give top 2 byes, 3-4 a one week "homefield advantage" and 5-6 are just lucky to be in the playoffs.

pheltzbahr Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 If we reduce playoff teams to 6 rags will never see what it's like to get in. Also, tanking will be even more rampant. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was only going to suggest going to six if we contracted to 14 teams. Since it looks like we're rolling with 16 I doubt we'll change the format too much. I'm ok with the Cap Space for 2018 remaining at $170K since the NFL is just at $168M. I could get behind a 2.5% yearly increase going forward starting in 2019.

We still have one vacant team, and last time we talked about it we shockingly had a volunteer to contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
