Report: NFL will add playoff team to each conference beginning this season
The Chiefs earned a first-round bye on the last day of the 2019 regular season on their way to the Lombardi Trophy.profootballtalk.nbcsports.com
Like this idea way more than adding a game to the regular season.
Not likely any union will accept a 6.25 percent increase in work without compensation. They'll want the cap and salaries to be prorated for that at least.Ya, but the players are saying fuck no to that so far

I'm sure there is, but they'll have to haggle over details. 17 games also means not an even number of games so unless they want to make everyone play a neutral field foreign game it'll be awkward for home/away splits. Can't wait for a Mahomes 6k yard season though!Hard to imagine the owners would propose a 17th game without compensation built in.
As PFT explained over the weekend, the league wants to start with 17 games by 2021; the players would like to push it to 2023. That would make 2022 an obvious point for compromise, if the NFL is willing to compromise on this item.
