I think the NFL will end up having Tuesday night games, Wednesday night games, Friday night games and of course Saturday games at some point.

You gotta have that 7 day coverage, corporate did a study that says fans want to see a game every night or something.

I'm surprised that it hasn't happened already. That would take the NFL from a special event to a mundane routine, but I'm still surprised it hasn't happened.

The truth is all of this will be angled for 2030/31 because that is when all of the TV rights and stream deals are up.

If the NFL can tell the networks they are adding teams 8 teams plus 2 byes ads weeks and games to the schedule which means they will ask for a significant increase of pay from the networks.

The NFL has actually tried pretty hard to not overlap with college football because they like having a minor league system that is free to them.

You can't expect teams that are subject to EU levels of withholding to be able to keep players at the same figures teams in the US can. And then what? How far do you go? Do you 'balance' for teams in Texas and Florida with no state income tax? California teams get a buffer because it has a high tax rate?

Shit, why not start talking about cost of living while you're at it...

It's all a terrible idea and it's designed to do nothing but make more money at the expense of the product. I would be righteously pissed.

Can't have Friday or Saturday games due to their anti-trust exemption.

What has the NFL ever done to tell you it isn't all about profit.

Seriously, circling back - why hasn't the NFL set up a true minor/developmental league? I know they scrapped NFL Europe, but that always seemed half-assed, and the world was different then.

Imagine if there were 32 international minor teams, populated with "not major leaguers" in 8 divisions:

UK/Irish Division [London, Dublin, Birmingham, Glasgow]
German Division [Berlin, Hamburg, Munich, Frankfurt]
Rest of Europe Division [Madrid, Rome, Paris, Barcelona]
Oceania Division [Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Auckland]

Asian Division [Tokyo, Seoul, Bangkok, Manila]
Latin American Division [Mexico City, Sao Paulo, Rio De Janiero, Buenos Aires]
African Division [Cairo, Cape Town, Johannesburg, Nairobi]
US Division [Salt Lake City, Portland, Central TX (ATX/SA), Omaha]

- Each program would be assigned to an NFL team, and could even rotate cities every 2 years to get each team more global exposure.

- Expand the NFL Draft to 14 rounds, where the last day of the draft is 7 rounds, lightning fast

- Each team participates in training camp, and after final cutdowns, teams could pick keepers and then have a minor league re-draft.

- Division games played for the first 8 weeks, then travel to the other division cities the other weeks, rotate home and away.


Pros
- Exposes the rest of the world to American Football, increasing eyeballs and merch sales.
- Allows mid-level players the ability to continue playing if they don't make the big leagues.
- Helps develop young talent, and widens the future talent pool once youth leagues pop up globally. This would also help the NCAA with international talent.

Cons
- Cost of doing business

You just feel the NFL can't stop tinkering and will wind up ****ing it up in the end.

They are banking on the massive popularity of the NFL cannot be harmed, no matter what they change.

Yea it never really made sense to me 1 or 2 teams but this proposal be it a good one or bad one at least makes sense.

London/Berlin/Paris/Amsterdam or Madrid.

Those whole countries could adopt those teams as their own not just the city. I think too much is being made about players wanting to go. Players would get over and settle in just fine. If players can enjoy Buffalo and Cincy then they can enjoy some of the greatest cities in the world. They will make the money work.
