I'd bet wild card keeps ratings up towards end of the season. More fans think their team has a shot, even after some divisions are locked up.

You're right. If it weren't for the wildcard you'd never see the Dolphins, Jets, or Bills in the playoffs. Oh, wait..

I like the wildcard. Imagine being in the patriots division if it didn't exist

True.

It's definitely about the dough.

16 teams mean every team plays the same teams for 15 games, if they schedule it that way. Sounds fair no matter which division you're in. But of course, why have divisions. LOL

Why not play an 18 game schedule, eliminate the wildcard and the playoff bye week.

You'll just get more injuries IMO. They are already pushing it to the limit.

Wild card probably doubles interest in football. Even at my lowest interest in the NFL since forever I'm suddenly interested in teams I'd never watch. 

 

Hey you CC types west of me how did the Eagles do this season?

The NFL has been pushing for an 18+ game schedule for a while. It's always been rejected by the NFLPA. The talk was to do away with the preseason games. They'd never reduce the number of games in the playoffs. Those games are $$$$.

Please get rid of preseason. Those tickets cost the same are the regular season and screw the season ticket holders

I take it you're forced to buy them? Like part of a package or something?

I can't speak for the Eagles but the Steelers won their division again and also kicked the Giants ass in the process so..... E.S!

Giants cut preseason by 50% this past year. Forcing them to be purchased is a joke in the first place. I agree have two preseason games then you can expand the regular season if that's necessary.

Yes pre-season ticket purchase is required.

Yes. I pay $800 every season for preseason games. Makes me sick
