I don't know why more people don't recommend 18 weeks/ 16 games. Every time I mentioned it it got dismissed apparently because the NFL tries two bye weeks years back and it went over poorly. But it seems like a great way to increase player safety, protect viewer scarcity/appetite, and increase tv revenue.
