They're already seeing diminishing returns on 16 for the first time in years. But nah, gotta chase the high at the cost of any sort of stability despite all signs pointing to the product beginning to decline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matts4313 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 All of you all obsessed with old records would still have us playing 14 games a year. Its really silly. Records are meant to be broken. Dont be the old man yelling at the clouds. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 An extra bye week would be appreciated, but owners want that cash money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way owners can sell tickets to 5 more games a year and players play less actual time. I'm brilliant. Chokers rejoice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August4th Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 the extra game would have be on a neutral site, right? 8 home 8 away 1 neutral. that would be fair. I wonder how they would decide on who plays who tho prolly use some kind of rotation 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea if that is actually in discussion too. This is what the CFL does with their longer season. Makes a ton of sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFC #1 seed plays the NFC #1 seed. What would be really fun is if they created slates of rivalry or proximity games. They would never do it, but if Dallas got to play Pittsburgh or Houston every year, that would be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frenchie Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 (edited) Leave it alone. there’s no logical reason to do this, other than a few more bucks for the billionaires... Edited January 11, 2020 by frenchie 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danger Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 I like it the way it is now, but lets just entertain the idea. Remove 2 preseason games. +1 regular season game +1 bye week. Every team plays 8 home games, 8 away games, and 1 neutral site game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirill Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Mahomes can shatter passing records now. I don't hate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
