My preference:
20 games 2 are Preseason 18 are regular season 2 BYE weeks instead of one.. A little extra healing time. =22 weeks of football excluding Post Season I could care less about anyone's single season record being broken. Single season records were broken when the NFL went to 14 game seasons and 16 game seasons... While it insures some records will be broken... It also ensures some records will stay in tact... Like the Undefeated season, two more games will that much more difficult. |

I don't like the idea of an 18 regular game season!
We have a 16 game regular season now, it works well for fans and players alike. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!!!!!!!!!!!!! GEAUX SAINTS!!!! |

Did I mention that I LOVE preseason?
If your starters dont get hurt, you cant lose! If you lose, doesnt mean anything. If you win, wahoo! And its PRE-season, which means the SEASON is coming. Its like foreplay, only you cant "lose it." Its like Christmas EVE. You wouldnt cancel Christmas Eve and have Two Christmases, now would you? No, you wouldnt, because Everybody would go broke.... .... and your' Quarterback would get hurt. Santa's career would be shortened. And retailers would just want even more money the next year. Then your family would demand a new crib, and probably just move to San Antonio. |

ok... thats part of my point... I love reg season games. I love whiskey too, but I cant afford much more, and it might start to affect other aspects of my life. There is such thing as enough, if it kills my players. |

From another thread...
The word is we'll have 2 less pre-season games, but teams will have a lot more scrimmages with other teams, which I like since its more efficient and teams can agree on a format and on certain things they'd like to work on. 18 reg games, 2 pre-season, and a couple more team vs team scrimmages, open to the public of course. |

Guys, I say this, with complete honesty... I get severely depressed when football season ends.... More football? That counts? I am down like Charlie Brown, in China town... I wish the NCAA would add more games, like a play off system, so I could start watching college football til July! More NFL games? HOOK IT UP!!!
