I personally don't like it, because too much of a good thing can become a bad thing. We'll see though.

He'll like it, then Manning will get injured in Week 18.

If 18 does happen, a possibility (that Casserly mentioned) on NFL Today is that the extra 2 games would be conference games against teams from the other 2 divisions in which you don't face all the teams. For you guys - using this year as example - that would be the East and North. Under the scenario he mentioned, the 1's and 4's would play each other, and the 2's and 3's would.

Added CAR opponents if .10 were an 18 game season, GB and PHI.
