SMH. Going to vent a bit here, but this idea and the way/quickness they are initiating this is stupid. Right off the top of my head, half the league gets 8 home games and the other half gets 8. Gee, no way that could ever lead to a problem now could it ?

The 17th (extra) game will always be between NFC and AFC teams. The AFC gets all the home matchups in 2021. The NFC gets all the home game in 2022. They'll alternate moving forward. No issue at all.

And this was not a knee-jerk move. This has been talked about for years and the structure was presented to the NFLPA.

I love this first matchup against the Titans in Nashville. I can go to that game and see my son perform all in the same trip. Perfect. It'll cost me an extra ticket for him, however.
