  • Goodell serious about expanding NFL playoffs

    Commissioner Roger Goodell confirmed that expanding the NFL playoffs is "under serious consideration."
    Goodell wants more teams involved in the playoff hunt so that there are more compelling late-season games, leading to more tickets sold and higher television ratings. The expected proposal that owners will vote on in March will be to add one more Wild Card team in each conference. Under that scenario, only one team in each conference would get a bye while the six-game Wild Card weekend would pit the No. 2 seed vs. No. 7, No. 3 vs. No. 6 and No. 4 vs. No. 5. This year, the No. 7 seeds would have been the Cardinals in the NFC and the Steelers in the AFC.

    I think it is good the way it is. That would make the teams fight harder for the top seed and a bye week. I don't like it in basketball where there are many below .500 and undeserving teams in the playoffs.
    I am looking for: JJ Watt, Kawhi Leonard, George Springer, Carlos Correa, Jose Altuve, Panini Points...

        So it could make the final week of the regular season mean more, but make a first round playoff game almost worth not even having??

        I get it, some teams don't get in that maybe should, could the Cardinals have been a good team in the playoffs...maybe, but that doesn't mean we need to enlarge (I say dilute) the playoff pool because one team might have been left out of the playoffs one year.
