I dont like the idea of an 18 game regular season, there's nothing wrong with how it is now, with an 18 game schedule you would have more injuries, more meaningless end of season games, we would all like to see more Football but at what cost? if all the best players were injured at the end of the season the playoffs would be a sham. Fans in the stadium and at home want to see the best players on the field in meaningful games, not injured on the sideline, its just an excuse for the owners to make more money, i dont blame the players for being against it, some earn vast fortunes but alot dont, add to the fact that contracts are not guarenteed and you begin to understand there concerns.
