He just wants to change the story as quickly as possible.

16 teams is absolutely ridiculous. So is 14, but I wouldn't freak out if it happened.

At 16 that would be half the league making the playoffs. That is absurd. No doubt you would get teams that are below .500 getting in.

I just don't understand why he wants to change so much shite. It isn't broken, don't try to fix it. Stupid.

the guy is just trying too hard to fix something that isn't broken. I haven't really gotten into the Thursday night football thing myself. I still watch it though, I love football. Its just the allure isn't as great as it is on a Sunday or a Monday night IMO. He really does suck though.. at being the commish, at life, etc.

How many of you today, alone, have made the jump over to the side of, "I'm ready for a new league?"

The NFL is becoming the NBA.

so the guy wants an 18 game schedule with a longer playoff and having a thursday night game every week. PLAYER SAFETY NUMBER ONE PRIORITY.

Nah, he wants to ensure that the 2012 New Orleans Saints are the most talented team to not make the playoffs going forward.

Because he's the worst commissioner in the history of sports.

Can someone say NHL? Maybe we can play the whole regular season to eliminate 2 teams... Horrible.

With another decade of Goodell as commissioner, the football season will last 8 months with games 6 days a week.

Why don't the owners fire this fricker? Sure these guys will make more money with more games, and more playoff teams, but the only way the players can survive an 18 games schedule + playoffs is if the league bans tackling.

I know the owners care about profits A number 1. But right below that, they care about image. I don't know how much longer they're gonna wanna stick with a commish who brings in so much bad PR. The last year has been a nightmare for the NFL for bad press.

Wow Jeff, something I actually agree with you on. The NBA playoffs suck because theres too many teams. It cheapens the importance of the regular season. Remember how pissed everyone was when Seattle won their division with a losing record? Imagine having wildcard games played between two teams with losing records.
