A 17-game season is dumb with the AFC and NFC alternating between 8 and 9 home games every other year. I would also add they should reduce the preseason to 2 games at most. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Stonada Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 At least 18 games is better numerically. 16 games was perfect. 3 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 They should just make it a 20 week season with 18 games and 2 bye weeks. 7 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 I always hated the Sunday night Super Bowl when I worked the next day. An answer to that is not a bad thing. 2 minutes ago, Allen2D̶i̶g̶g̶s̶TBD said: They should just make it a 20 week season with 18 games and 2 bye weeks. And just one pre-season game with a running clock. It used to be almost as long as the season, and it’s STILL too much. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDingus Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 I'm cool with that, but I'd rather they find a way to fix playoffs & get it back to top 2 seeds getting a bye in each conference. Don't care how they have to do it, cut teams, add teams, whatever, but it's annoying that only the 1 seed gets much benefit. Under the pre-2020 rules, the Bills would've had a 1st round bye twice already. Sorry, just whining about something that'll likely never change 😅 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BullBuchanan Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Who exactly is clamoring for more regular season football? It's too long as it is. I don't want to watch playoff games where the best players are out due to the grind of the season. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo03 Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Goodell is awful. We don't need 18 games and we don't need more international games. A President's Day weekend Super Bowl would be cool, though. 17 games is great. We don't need more. Goodell is horrible 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Otreply Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 Of course they are, 17 games was merely a stepping stone to 18 games. In the future the League will start the push towards twenty games, it’s all about more billions after all…, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UConn James Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 It’s for this reason that I was most in favor of having a retractable roof or a clear cover ala SoFi and the new Bears concept. February games at open-air Highmark will be as brutal on us as it will be for an opponent. (To say nothing about it’ll be brutal on the concrete, paint, seats, and stadium amenities). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alternating between the conferences with 8 vs 9 home games every year dumb. Should have stayed at 16. I agree with you on the international games, but they are here to stay as the league wants to grow the game outside of America, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
