If they added a 17th game it would only be fair that it be played on neutral turf.
If not there would be teams that had more home games than away games and vice versa.
Isn't that the main argument everyone had on teams having to host home games abroad, that they were at a disadvantage giving up a home game?
This plan would be perfect.
They wouldn't be adding anymore games overall, just adding a reg. season game and taking away a preseason game.
Players and fans alike have complained about the long preseasons especially season ticket holders who are forced to pay for games they don't want to go to.
It's solves a number of problems.
Shortens preseason, allows the NFL to showcase the sport and allows the continued balance of home v.s. away games for every team.
