I’m an old man, you see. I’ve drafted both Curt Warner and Kurt Warner on my Fantasy Football teams in different seasons, and I’ve been around long enough to remember the Raiders and Rams in L.A. the first time. I’m closing in on 45, and that has me nostalgic for yesteryear – and fearful of years to come.
It’s what old people do – gripe about the old days, and watch Fox News. (Well, hopefully, the latter never happens, and my love for cartoons returns in my later years instead.)
So as I look a decade ahead, and I wonder what the 2026 NFL season will look like, I first look back to see what has changed since the 2006 NFL season.
