I agree, but also No team should get a bye unless all teams get one, it's an unfair advantage.....
The best record should get the HF throughout but no bye...
The only way to get rid of the bye is add more teams.
As it stands with 6 in each conference, if there was no week 1 bye there would have to be a week 2 bye.
6 teams playing in week one. 3 win. 3 lose.
That leave you with 3 teams. One of them will then get a bye in Week 2.
Even if you took away the conferences and just seeded all of them together.
You would go from 12 to 6 to 3 and have a team with a bye right before the Super Bowl.
Four teams (two in each conference) would have to be added to eliminate the bye week.
