I just hope the Bills don't have to play in one of these games anytime soon. Definitely don't want them to give up a home game. Let teams with no fans (Jags, Chargers, Rams) do that. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HereComesTheReignAgain Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Not that this is news to anyone, but the NFL is making it abundantly clear that it values money and exposure much more than it values the hardcore, loyal fan base and legitimate competition. It is really sad to see it head in this direction. 2 20 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By making season 17 games they should make each game neutral not charging for season tickets that game including alternate sites in US and Canada. Technically they have to have a "home" team due to rule about calling coin but other than that there is nothing special about "home" team being declared. Have teams in south without domes have their 17th game in more temperate climates during beginning of year and teams in north without domes have their games in warmer climate areas, Others will just be fit into season using AWS screw Bills algorithm. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleeding Bills Blue Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 I dunno why its so difficult - You want that international money - add a 2nd bye week. You can also start having games on i dunno - tuesday or something. Give teams time to re-acclimate after long travel weekends to places unknown. etc. 3 minutes ago, HereComesTheReignAgain said: Not that this is news to anyone, but the NFL is making it abundantly clear that it values money and exposure much more than it values the hardcore, loyal fan base and legitimate competition.

Lost Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Drop a preseason game, make season 18 games and each team to play 2 International games. Sick of seeing teams like the Bills get shafted a home game to go play in London or elsewhere. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregg Posted December 6, 2023 Author Share Posted December 6, 2023 What does the league bring in revenue wise now. 20 - 25 billion a year. That number will be going up which is all Goodell, and the owners care about. Something about watching football at 9:30 in the morning I will never get used too.

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Why don’t they just bring back NFL Europe? That was nice as a developmental league (a few guys transitioned to the NFL; I am recalling Orande Gadson and maybe even the great Brian Moorman). And I think the fans in Europe enjoyed it. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if Australia gets a game it'll be 6:30 or earlier I believe. Between these overseas games, officiating and trying to figure out which streaming service your game is on, the NFL is almost becoming too painful to follow. 5 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17islongenough Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 It won't be bad if they did the following. 8 home games 8 away games 1 international game. No one loses a home game and that game is against the other conference 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Applicable Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Never-ending greed is ruining this league; I can't think of one change under Goodell's tenure that has truly made the game better. If (a BIG if) the Bills can somehow win a Super Bowl soon, the time I spend watching the NFL is going to drop precipitously. Nowhere near as fun to watch as it was before that stooge entered the picture. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 I’ve said it before. Misdirected anger. Don’t be pissed at Goodell. Be angry at the owners including our own, Terry Pegula. Goodell does nothing without approval from his bosses. 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is really sad to see it head in this direction. Just look at the Super Bowl and what it's become. It's not for true football fans, it's a pop-culture extravaganza. Unless you're really into the two teams playing, and how often is that, for me it's not even watchable anymore. It's more like a circus than a football game. I think I've seen one Super Bowl over the past five seasons or so. And when I do watch, the moment that the first half ends, I turn the TV off, set a timer for 30 minutes, and then come back after all that crap is past. LOL Someone should put a poll up, if the Bills weren't in the NFL, would they watch any games. I wouldn't, or very rarely anyway. I'm weird though, I enjoy AAA baseball more than I enjoy MLB. 3 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virgil Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 I've started to wonder if they are trying to work towards another NFL Europe league. I can't imagine any teams will sign-off on having a NFL team over there. The travel for the opposing teams, especially those in the same division, would be terrible.
