not yet. give it 3 or 4 years.

I love the NFL but 18 is too much and not at the risk of player's health going into the playoffs.

It works perfectly the way it is. Stop fixing it.

well it can only go to 18 if the players allow it so if it happens then they cannot blame anyone but themselves

[Eagaholic]

Bottom line is the league and players both will make more if they go to 18 games, so it's just a matter of time.

yeah, thank god.  4 preseason games rule!

[ice grillin you]

with how much ota's and training camp has been cut i dont think four preseason games is that out of line anymore...whats out of line is having to pay full price for them

[Eagaholic]

And the talk before was changing to 2 preseason games when they add the 2 regular season ones. It wouldn't surprise me if they come up with an idea to expand the playoffs at some point.

Didn't know where to post this, but good opinion on the nfl drug testing.

Sorry to disagree but I think that was the poorest argument I've ever seen on the whole PED debate. If I wasn't so lazy I'd spell out a point by point rebuttal to virtually everything she says, but you'll just have to stay bound in suspense.

I'll wait...in suspense. But I would be curious to hear your rebuttal.
