At meeting, Roger Goodell stresses player safety amid slow progress

By Tom Pedulla, USA TODAY

I was thinking WTF is the point of that?

Thank God you're just kidding.

Still wouldn't mind a 17 game season if it means 16 neutral site games that Goodell can place around the world, in future US franchise sites (like LA), or American locations that have no hope of ever getting a team (like Alaska)...... but only if it gets him off his 18 game kick and keeps him from expanding the league, especially with international franchises.

I would be willing to take an 18 game schedule, if only it were the last thing he did.

16 is too many. JMHO, but I think 14 is just about perfect.

If he steps down as Commish, which the arrogant SOB will never do, I'd find a way to be OK with an 18 game schedule.

I agree with you. If there was some way to take an 18 game schedule and Goodell is no longer commish, I'd take the 18 game schedule in a heart beat.

Just like politics.. one steps aside and another 'just as incompetent' continues to mess the game up.
Nothing wrong with the way it is. If it ain't broken, why think it needs fixing?? :no: we all know it's about $$$$ but Goodell hasn't the spine to admit he is a Greedy F.

i don't really care how many games they play. i'd be happy with 16 or 18. but i just dont like how you can preach safety and fine so much and then think its cool to add 2 games. its so hypocritical but that's what i come to expect from good ol commish
