It occurs to me that the NFL is missing a trick and could learn lessons from other North American sports. These lessons would increase profits further. Sorry, I mean enhance the greatness of the NFL.
1) More games. 17 is a massive waste of empty stadia. Let's go with what baseball does and have a game each day. I reckon 183 games should do it, with a season running from April to October.
Fans will love watching games in Summer, rather than those brutal winters. What's not to like?
2) Remove padding. Baseball and basketball both do fine without padding. Remove it all.
3) Learn from Ice Hockey and introduce sticks. However, sticks should only be for those protecting the Quarterback, whose status needs to become even more sanctified.
4) Have weekly road games across the world. Why not play in, say, Fairbanks one week, Frankfurt the next, Bogotá and then Ulan Bator?
Feel free to add any other suggestions!
