(Very) Short Idea: What the NFL Should Do for 2020

| August 5th, 2020

Bubbles work. (Basketball)

Non-bubbles don’t. (Baseball)

The NFL should scrap the 2020 schedule, and move it to 2021.

Create a bubble for each division – 8 in total. For instance the NFC North bubble could be in Chicago. Then have the teams play each other four times each, 12 games total, starting in early October.

The 8 division winners enter a new playoff bubble come January. (Since there’s a likelihood of a tie or two, let point differential break the tie. Or…just play another game.)

This would give the season legitimacy and could actually be fun.
