Some people like the idea, but others do not. It seems the NFL’s current schedule make up is about as perfect as in can get. With 32 teams each playing 16 games, things just seem to work. The problem is, is the league maximizing their potential income with this number?
Obviously the answer is “no” as NFL owners are pushing for a 17-game season as early as the 2021 season. Whether or not the owners really want this number of games is anyone’s guess, but the money generated from each team playing another contest is just too much for the owners to pass up.
