We all know that the NFL's goal has always been to get to 18 regular season games, player safety be damned. The first part was this half measure to 17 games but yesterday Goodell went all in. I get the appeal for the NFL (another weekend of games) plus the fact the Super Bowl would now fall on President's weekend . but always thought they could accomplish this the same way with player safety in mind. They could add a second bye week which would still get you that extra weekend of games as obviously there are still games when some teams have byes, they still get you to play on President'a weekend with an extra week built into the schedule and players brains may not turn into as much mush. Everybody wins.
