Commanders Post at The Warpath - View Single Post - 18 game schedule coming...What would you like to see the new format be?

I'm for it. Take away 2 preseason games, add it on to the season, and give the teams more players to start with. I think Changing the 53 man roster to enable teams to have more on the roster will help teams be able to have more back ups that already know the system vs. having to hunt the open market and bring someone in and teach them with only a weeks worth of time.

In regards to preseason the 2 games given could be used to see if the Rookies can play in the NFL. Obviously any team starting from scratch after bringing in a new HC and scheme might have some difficulty in just two short games but then teams can look to have more scrimmages or simply practice with other teams.
