I don't see how 17 games works out fairly in regards to home vs away games unless one year you had the AFC teams all get an extra home game and then the next year all the NFC teams get the extra home game....in this fashion when time for playoffs no team would have an advantage compared to the other teams in their conference
1 neutral site for each team is the only way.
 
Let’s just make the season start first blood.

Fuck it, let’s eliminate the needless commercial breaks, and sudden death rules in terms of scoring.

Season could be through in October.
 
What fan says "Le'ts have fewer games"?
I'm 100000% down with 0 preseason games and 16 regular season games.

College football doesn't have a preseason to get geared up, and those are amateurs. The NFL doesn't need one either.

Are you suggesting ..........TWO Seasons!!!!?

Well, I’m not sure that Bama vs. UCSLU muddogs is really anything more than preseason but many teams pass on preseason.
 
The NFL never listens to fans. They hear what they want to hear.

Fans: We don't like preseason. Let's have fewer games.

NFL: More regular season games!

The ****?
I think the nfl has seen its peak. It will begin/continue to decline, and rather than try to improve the product, they will do crap like this and continue to squeeze every last drop of revenue out of a declining fanbase.

Years ago, I watched nfl football any game that I could get. Now, if the Titans aren't involved, I don't watch. I don't even watch the super bowl usually.

I think that’s just a personal outlook.
Fantasy football probably brings in more randoms than anything else.
I think NFL is probably bigger than it ever has been although, if the evil empire is gone, I think that actually hurts the league temporarily at least.

They keep making more money and outside the kaep debacle the viewership has been steady or growing for years...

I'm the opposite, I watch every Thursday and Monday nighter, and 3-4 games ever Sunday. Fantasy football has paved the way for team specific fans to care about other games.

This might be the only way this could work. And, I guess, those NFC teams would host an additional preseason game.
 
Nothing, but Goodell is set on growth and keeps his job because of it.

I dont like change for the sake of change, but the NFL does. Which means they will have to cash in on the new TV deal to avoid adding a game to increase revenue. The players hate the 16 games as is, no way they want 17.
I stopped giving a f about the players in 2003
 
If the NFL ever expands, they will need more games. This just paves the way to eventually having London and Mexico CIty teams.
