7. Have Roger Goddell answer to Tony Saprano.

8. Redo the divisions so they make sense.

9. Allow the teams with the highest win loss records into the playoffs. Yeah that means some divisional winner might not get there.

-The catch rule....needs to be simplified, obviously.
-Offense keeps the ball if it's fumbled through the endzone. Put the ball at the 20 as they do, but the offense retains possession.
-Each team gets 2 challenges per half.
-Eliminate the Pro Bowl.
-Division realignment with 6 divisions (6-6-5-5-5-5).
-Eliminate conferences.

The conference elimination and realignment are far fetched, but I would love to see it. I think it would be pretty cool to have more natural geographic rivalries playing twice a year. 6 division winners and the 6 best records would qualify for playoffs and seeded 1-12 by W-L record. Top-4 receive a 1st round bye. 5-12, 6-11, 7-10, and 8-9 would be the 1st round matchups.

West (6)--ARZ, LAC, LAR, OAK, SEA, SF
Midwest (5)--DAL, DEN, HOU, KC, TEN
Southeast (6)--ATL, CAR, JAX, MIA, NO, TB
North (5)--CHI, DET, GB, IND, MIN
Northeast (5)--BAL, CIN, CLE, NYJ, PIT
East (5)--BUF, NE, NYG, PHI, WAS
-Teams with at least one playoff appearance in the last 3 seasons in BOLD (24 of 32). That's for the people who would claim that this division and that division is filled with bitches and stuff like that.

I didn't put NYG-NYJ in the same division so the rest of the league wouldn't bitch about one of them having 9 home games each season.

With teams playing 8 or 10 division games it allows some wiggle room to schedule some old rivalries with the 6 or 8 remaining. DAL-NYG, for example, could play once a year. I wouldn't be upset if they were no longer a division foe. I'm okay with divisions not being an equal number across the board. It was done that way several years before 2002 so it's manageable.

Id like to see Goodell fired and this guy take his place .....

Everything is fair except #4. Owners back out of contracts all the time. Why should players be the only ones who have to honor them?

Don’t like 9 either.... but I get it.

Number 8 is tough cause so many classic rivalries would die
