If it’s not broke, why fix it?
The NFL has a tendency to constantly expand–bigger and better. Now, commissioner Goodell has come out to admit that the League is considering expanding playoff games to Friday and Monday nights, for the Wildcard round.
“The big discussion would be the first weekend, the wild card weekend of the playoffs, how would you structure that? Three on Saturday, three on Sunday? We’re looking at every alternative, and I think that’s what the membership ultimately is going to have to decide…“Would you play a game on Friday night, two on Saturday, two on Sunday and another on Monday?”
With the idea of expanding the number of playoff teams inching closer and closer to becoming a reality the idea of playoff expansion just makes sense.
The short week is gonna be something that the League will have to work out the details on, but as much as we may all complain about the idea of even more football, the ratings will still be high.
