Holy shit, if that’s true it’s one of the most insane fuck ups I’ve ever heard about. The Raiders are an incompetent clown show but that would be astoundingly awful even for them.

Many players already want the league to add another bye week because playing football is physically demanding and they want more time to rest and heal their bodies. That extra bye would have to be a major part of negotiations.

“Eighteen games is definitely a big ask. That’s not easy adding that extra game,” Cincinnati Bengals star quarterback Joe Burrow said. “Obviously, it would be great for revenue, but I feel like adding that bye week, if you’re going to have the 18-game schedule, is pretty critical for our bodies. If you keep that first bye week, and some teams have the bye in Week 5, Week 6, and then you’re going 12, 13 games in a row, that’s not easy. Probably a Thursday night game thrown in there, too, so that’s never easy. Those two byes are pretty critical.”

completely agree that any move to 18 games should include 2 Bye weeks

completely agree that any move to 18 games should include 2 Bye weeks

problem with that is the regular season would then have to be 20 weeks long, 2 weeks longer than in it is right now.
weather would become an issue with scheduling, as it's hot some places in August and cold some places in January.
