Interesting behavior for an Ego-Maniacal manipulative brat kid to busy making commercials to get serious?

Good to see these guys are trying to get on the same page. Looking at Garcon's body language and listening to some of his quotes, these two obviously had issues last year. However this pitch and catch stuff is common around the league.

The NFL will NOT compete with high schools and colleges on football. They've stated as much and it's the right move. This will not change.Makes sense.

I haven't heard this idea, it's just floating around in my head.
If they were to add a 7th team from each conference for the playoffs, what if the first weekend kicked off with 2 play in games Thursday between the 4th seed (lowest division winner) and the 7th seed. Then Sat/Sun would be the 2nd vs 6 and 3rd vs 5th.

This year that would have resulted in:
Thursday:
(7)Ariz [10-6] at (4)GB [8-7-1]
(7)Pitt[8-8] at (4)Indy[11-5]

Sat/Sun
(6)SD@(2)NE
(5)KC@(3)Cin.
(6)NO@(2)Car
(5)SF@(3)Phi

There probably would be some question over the Thursday night Starts, but if CBS did and Early, say 630, and NFLN did 930, like the first Monday Night game of the season now, I think it would work.

Like I said, I haven't seen it out there, but if they go with 7 teams, the Thursday game would let the teams answer the question of a bad division winner or the next best record.

The NFL has shown they are not afraid to change things up or worried about tradition,examples like eliminating extra points,wanting 18 game schedule,thursday night games etc.
I think the NFL would make 90% or more of worldwide fans{especially USA}if they would move the Superbowl to Sat @5;30 instead of Sunday.Theres 2 weeks to prepare for the SB,so moving it up a day shouldnt have an effect on teams preparation.
My guess is it they feel it would probably impact the host city economically so the owners would never approve moving it.

It should be Saturday Night period. Completely dumb to do Sunday

But I imagine Friday night, and all of Saturday is where the host city makes it's money. Everyone is in, going to pre SB parties, enjoying the city basically spending money while they wait for Sunday's game. Then Sunday everyone moves to the game.

If they held the game Saturday, I think a sizeable portion of people would use Sunday as a travel day, meaning there aren't any day after SB events, just grabbing the next flight out of there.

#Browns promote Ray Farmer to GM. Mike Lombardi and Joe Banner leaving #Browns.


The Browns are a complete train wreck. Jimmy Haslam seems worse than Dan Snyder when he first took over the Skins. What the hell are those clowns doing in Cleveland.

Joe Banner, Mike Lombardi out in Cleveland, Ray Farmer new GM | ProFootballTalk (http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/02/11/joe-banner-mike-lombardi-out-in-cleveland-ray-farmer-new-gm/)

What a complete embarrassment. When canidates tell you they're are not even willing to come in and listen, thats a problem.
