    Default NFL owners vote to approve expanded 14-team playoff format

    NFL team owners formally approved a plan Tuesday to expand the postseason to 14 teams, beginning with the 2020 season.

    During a conference call to discuss league business after the annual meetings were canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic, the owners also awarded one of those extra games to CBS and one to NBC. Three-fourths of the 32 owners needed to approve the change.

    The new format changes prior league practice in two ways:

    • There will be a total of three wild-card teams per conference, up from two.

    • The No. 2 seed in each conference will host the new No. 7 seed in the wild-card round, meaning that only the No. 1 seeds will have first-round byes.

    Owners are getting so greedy. Really they do not care about players health it seems.
    April Showers and Easter!

    I do like that it makes being the 1 Seed even more important.

    It'll be sad times when a silly tie-breaker decides that. Hypothetically, of course.

    I don't really get this line of thinking, but it is your thoughts, so...

    I was confused on that comment also.

    Wildcard weekend having 3 games per day will be epic.

    There's proof the deadly O'BrienVirus has struck NFL headquarters.

    The NFL has chosen to put the extra wild card game on Nickelodeon and NBC's streaming service "The Peacock"...

    Spongebob Squarepants will provide play-by-play while Freddie Kitchens will do color commentary.

    The O'BrienVirus, which first appeared in January, is marked by excessive cursing and a tendency to make incredibly terrible decisions such as going for it on 4th down in your own territory with a 24-point lead or trading your All-Pro receiver for a washed-up running back with a bloated contract.
