It would probably take away a week or 2 of good games at the end of the regular season. A team that has clinched a playoff berth still plays for home field advantage. Under the proposed plan, they'd have nothing to play for and just rest everyone earlier than ever before.

The last two weeks of the season have alway been about teams trying to make the playoffs or those who are trying to clinch a first round bye week. I don't see the excitement of the last two weeks going away if the conf. championship game is played at a neutral site.
