Nope... I feel like what separates the NFL from other sports is that football only has a finite amount of games and everyone counts. With more games its going to be more injuries more meaningless games.

Think last season dragged on forever? Imagine two extra games of that torture...

The best scenario in my opinion: 3 preseason games at a vastly reduced ticket price. 16 regular season games. Let's face it, we need the preseason to work out some kinks, but four is too many, and two seems like too few.

See I don't think the roster size really has anything to do with it. If you move to a 60-65 man roster its not like teams will all of a sudden start playing scrubs during games. The same starters are going to be playing 18 games instead of 16 so they are the ones getting beat up more. The only thing a larger roster might add is some fresh legs on special teams but the marquee guys are going to be taking more punishment regardless.

    • Push em to the brink!!! Shut em down Freddie!
    • I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.   
    • Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
