That sums up my thoughts exactly,

No they need to stop changing the game that became popular the way it was.
They need to change the OT rule back to the way it was, reduce the penalties on pass coverage, and the penalties on hitting the QB. If you don't want your QB hit build a better OL or you deserve it.

My initial reaction was 'yes,' but I'm going to go ahead and officially say 'no.' I like the format the way it is currently. As someone already said, an expansion might make the regular season slightly more insignificant. I like this season that so many games decided who was in and who was not. For instance, I actually watched the Cowboys v. Giants game because of the implications. I wouldn't have cared otherwise.

Do we really want to see teams with 7 or 8 wins in the playoffs? No thanks...

I think they should expand the regular season/play off such that the superbowl is played on the Sunday prior to the third Monday in Febuary. In other words the day before President's day. That way folks don't have to go to work hungover.

The only postseason game I would like to see added is the 2 worst teams play each other for the #1 pick.
