Jerry Jones talks about the playoffs

[Mr. Scot]

What the headline on PFT actually says...

"Jerry Jones favors expanding the playoffs"

What it would say if the full truth were told...

"Jerry Jones favors expanding the playoffs to however many spots it would take for the Cowboys to have a shot at getting in"

Perhaps he'll propose expanding the playoffs to 20 teams.

Pretty soon, it will be like college and their bowl eligiblity.  6 wins and you are good.

 

I don't like it.  6 from each conference is enough.

[Mr. Scot]

I agree...

But I'm not a Cowboy fan :lol:

[Swan]

team w/ better record gets to play @ home. thats the only change id propose

[Anybodyhome]

Headed toward NHL-style playoffs where almost everyone gets in.

 

But, that's the only way a Dallas Cowboy team will get in....

[PhillyB]

why do you guys say we're headed there?

[mav1234]

I don't know that we're headed there.  Perennial loser owners with a lot of money power may want it, but I don't think we're anywhere near expanding the number of teams yet.

They should do 3 team games. Three endzones, 1 football.

[Porn Shop Clerk]

i'd be all for eliminating the bye week

I like this every game matters playoffs scenario we have. For the owners expanding the playoffs would be ideal money-wise, but that would decrease the competitiveness of the game. Too many teams would clinch playoffs birth too early. Because many teams had difficulty selling out their playoffs tickets the NFL will attempt to recoup those revenues by adding more teams. Big businesses will get their money some way.

[Mr. Scot]

why do you guys say we're headed there?

I don't.

Probably should have clarified that "I agree" the playoffs are good as is.

[ed bell]

The Cowgirls were in the "playoffs", they lost to the Eagles.

[panfanman]

They should do 3 team games. Three endzones, 1 football.

For being such a moronic out of left field comment, you may be onto something there. You should draw up fundamental concepts and rules of play for this and see if Jerry will fund the start of a new league.

[Anybodyhome]

What the NFL really needs is the "Jerry Jones Rule."

 

This is essentially a gag order on Jerry Jones that starts at the end of Week 17 when his team has again failed to make the playoffs. It reads like this:

"Jerry Jones, your team was eliminated from the playoffs. Stop trying to grab attention when your team is deemed irrelevant until next season. Please STFU until the NFL draft. Thank you."
