<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/roger-goodell" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Roger Goodell</a> is always looking for ways to make the NFL more appealing to fans. Now, the Commissioner has announced an ambitious and controversial plan to revamp the league in the near future.



Under Roger Goodell’s leadership, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/+en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> has grown increasingly popular. His tenure has seen significant success in expanding the league’s fanbase, with strategic decisions that have brought more global attention to the sport.



One of Goodell’s key achievements has been elevating the NFL’s presence internationally. However, he is now aiming for another major overhaul that could drastically reshape the league and its impact on players.



<h2>Roger Goodell confirms a major revamp to the NFL schedule soon</h2>



Roger Goodell’s tenure as NFL Commissioner has been marked by substantial growth in the league’s popularity, not just domestically but globally. His leadership has undeniably brought more eyes to the sport.

Despite this success, Goodell has also made several controversial decisions, and his latest proposal is likely to spark significant backlash from players.



A few years ago, Goodell introduced the concept of a 17-game regular season. This move faced strong opposition from players but was eventually implemented, adding an extra game to an already demanding schedule.



Now, Goodell is proposing another significant change. He has announced plans to expand the regular season to 18 games, while reducing the preseason to two games, keeping the total at 20 games per year, including preseason.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><div><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://media.bolavip.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/10/27175350/Goodell-1-1024x576-1024x576.webp" alt="" class="wp-image-253640" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure></div><figcaption>Roger Goodell, Commissioner of the NFL</figcaption></figure>



“We would keep within that 20-game framework,” Goodell said on Bloomberg TV. “We went to 16 and four, and now 17 and three. So 18 and two is a logical step.”



<h2>What do players think about an 18-game regular season?</h2>



The NFL Players Association will need to deliberate on this proposal. Their role is to assess the feasibility of this new schedule, but early reactions suggest the idea is not well-received among players.

Many players have expressed concerns that the current schedule is already taxing. Adding another regular-season game, even with a reduced preseason, raises fears of increased injuries and the potential negative impact on team performance.

The calendar for the 2023 season was confirmed a month ago. That’s something that could be a huge part of how teams end up doing depending on how their games are distributed. However, that doesn’t apply to the preseason.



In the past it was more frequent seeing teams using their starters multiple times. Nowadays it has become a norm to see most of the star players not participating at all, taking the first couple of weeks of the regular season as the preseason.

The opponents each team is going to face gets determined right after the regular season ends, so everyone knew who they were meeting.



With the schedule now being completed the distribution of each game is what could benefit some franchises and harm others. In the losing side of the conversation are the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-Rumors-Kyle-Shanahan-relieved-49ers-avoided-familiar-foe-in-Week-1-20230511-0033.html">San Francisco 49ers</a> and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-Draft-Who-is-Mr-Irrelevant-2023-20230429-0022.html">Los Angeles Rams</a>.

Making a schedule that is liked by every team is virtually impossible. However, these two NFC West rivals have something in common that went against them.



<h2>NFL schedule: 49ers, Rams among the biggest losers</h2>



There are different ways to determine who was benefited with the schedule, but the discussions could end up being just opinions. Something that is easier to prove is how much time each team have to rest between games, and that’s exactly where these franchises were harmed the most.



The San Francisco 49ers and the Los Angeles Rams will be playing against teams coming from their bye weeks four times. They are the only ones to have that disadvantage that might be huge during the demanding 17-game season.



San Francisco will play vs the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/cleveland-browns-trade-for-top-pass-rusher-to-pair-him-with-myles-garrett-20230513-BUS-660.html">Cleveland Browns</a>, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/the-nfl-denied-a-super-bowl-contender-their-request-to-play-on-black-friday-20230513-BUS-710.html">Cincinnati Bengals</a>, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jacksonville-jaguars">Jacksonville Jaguars</a>, and the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-DeAndre-Hopkins-announces-the-team-hell-play-for-in-2023-20230501-0029.html">Arizona Cardinals</a> in weeks 6, 8, 10, and 15, respectively.

The full <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/Who-has-the-hardest-NFL-schedule-in-2023-20230511-0038.html">NFL schedule</a> was released last Thursday with a ton of exciting games.

This season there was a new date appearing in the calendar after that Thursday triple-header. In 2023 it will be time for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-News-Black-Friday-game-will-feature-Aaron-Rodgers-in-2023-20230510-0016.html">the first ever game on Black Friday</a>.

A divisional matchup between top teams should have a lot of people thrilled. However, one team didn’t like it.



<h2>A Super Bowl contender requested to play on Black Friday</h2>



The Jets have been away from the big scene for a long time because they weren’t able to have good teams for a while. This season that will change thanks only to their new quarterback <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/Superstar-admits-he-considered-playing-for-the-Packers-while-Aaron-Rodgers-was-there-20230510-0038.html">Aaron Rodgers</a>. New York will go back to Sunday Night Football after 12 years, but they will also feature in this new spot in the calendar.



The Cincinnati Bengals were the team that offered to host the first ever game on Black Friday. This was told by the NFL VP of Broadcast Planning Mike North, according to Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk. This could have been a great opportunity to appear in a standalone match for a small market franchise. However, not being selected doesn’t mean they won’t be considered in the future.



Cincinnati saw the opportunity to become a regular participant in what could become a huge thing in a couple of years, although the possibility of an AFC East rivalry game was too enticing. This week 12 clash between the Jets and the Dolphins will take place on November 24. “We’re thrilled to offer another way to delight Amazon customers, and give all fans free access to this AFC East showdown”, vice president of global sports video Marie Donoghue said about the broadcast.

<h2>NFL Schedule 2023: Who has the highest strength of schedule?</h2>
Determining who has the biggest disadvantages in the schedule is something very subjective. Although trying to measure the level of their opponents can be weighed based on the strength of schedule.

The way the NFL schedule is made helps to keep the parity in a super competitive league. A lot of things can change from one season to the other, but it still a good starting point knowing how well each team played the previous year. This system can’t be considered perfect because there are moves that could shift the faith of a franchise, like the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/NFL-Schedule-2023-Jets-Aaron-Rodgers-set-to-visit-the-Dallas-Cowboys-early-20230511-0034.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Jets</a> trading for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/Superstar-admits-he-considered-playing-for-the-Packers-while-Aaron-Rodgers-was-there-20230510-0038.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Aaron Rodgers</a>.

Considering they finished last in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/What-number-will-QB-Bryce-Young-wear-with-the-Carolina-Panthers-20230502-0030.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">NFC South</a> it makes total sense they rank high, having to play to other teams that ended fourth in their divisions. It’s also not a coincidence that teams in bad divisions appear at the top of this list.
