So another 10-6 team gets shafted from the playoffs.. Expand playoff teams now!

Enough is enough! Bears are 10-6 and miss the playoffs, Giants are 9-7 and miss the playoffs. Let me clairify, I am ONLY in favor expanding to 14 teams, 16 would be overkill and be too much like the NBA. Dont even say "but but crappy teams will make the playoffs." Thats a load of crap. History shows that more teams with winning records get screwed as opposed to 7-9 or 8-8 teams sneaking in. Do the Right thing Godell! Expand the playoff teams to 14 instead of 12. Its more of a travesty that 10-6 teams can miss the post season than it is that the occasional 8-8 team would get in.

Disagree all you want, but as the saying goes.. "no such thing as a athiest in foxhole." I bet fans are against expanding the playoffs until their team goes 10-6 and still misses the playoffs.

No. Playoffs at 12 is fine. We don't need damn near half the league making the playoffs.

32 teams, 14 isnt close to half. 16 teams, that would be awful. Why should the 10-6 Vikings make the playoffs but not the 10-6 Bears. Because of stupid tiebreaking rules. How heartbreaking would it be if we went 10-6 and missed the playoffs. God I hope the comish does the right thing and expand to 14 teams

I don't have a major issue with things the way they are.

They could do it where you play each team in your conference once and that is 15 games. Take away 2 pre season games and and those as regular games then extend the season by an extra 1 game to 18 games and play 3 random AFC teams?

Haven't really thought about it too much honestly.

However I think in any case they should extend the rosters, both the active and the inactive.

In what world is 14 of 32 not "damn near close to half?" That's 44% dude.

      I was definitely on board with re-signing Darnold for another year while they drafted someone. Darnold really turned a corner once he came back in the second half of 2022. He is one of the better QBs in the NFL now for sure. Still makes those patented Darnold blunders though, evidenced by throwing a pick on a potential game winning drive yesterday. But he was also stellar at times during that game too.

      I dare you to go “pull the records” on my Cam posts. 🤣🤣🤣  Kyle Allen posts too.  I was one of the few screaming how garbage he was early.  Also, look up the posts and see what side I was on when it was rumored Olsen tried to console Cam his rookie year after a tough loss.  And whose side I was on when people criticized Cam for the towel, or “pouting” or for dancing.  I have never wavered.  Not only do I pull for Cam as an athlete, but I felt a kinship with him dating back to his Florida days.  I wrote about it here.  I know what it’s like to be judged off your persona, your reputation that someone else has given you, off falsehoods, off appearances, off of a mistake.  I know what it’s like to be ridiculed and omitted from opportunities for those things.  I’ve never me Cam, but that’s my brother.  So, anything insinuating anything else is hilarious.  I was riding for Cam when half the board wanted Marcel Dareus.🤣  I was riding for Cam and running off racists like “TheRealDeal” over Matt Moore (who, actually was a damn good QB, imo, but he was no Cam).  To this day, I still maintain, if we signed Cam off the street right now, he is the best QB on this roster instantly.  I don’t care what anyone says.   So if you have some sort of previous history with another poster or posters that made the racial component obvious, then please share, but when it’s coming from me?  Trust and believe - this ain’t that.  Never will be.  And no doubt, a ton of Cam hate was purely racial.  But, I call a spade a spade.  Mentioning Bryce in the same breath as Cam is objectively insulting.

      I haven’t. And always willing to show face. If you’re going to a game let me know. Love for you to explain why I’m an idiot to my face.
