That is trueMaybe 1 or 2 good teams per Division but not 16.

We can agree on something.Shortening the preseason is a horrible idea, not to mention why do 12 teams per region need to make it. In a lot of the regions that will mean at least 3 teams with .500 records or worse , everyone needs a participation ribbon....
I agree. I know I'm in the minority but I'd actually like to see Harbins used in all team sports. We dont need a team that's won 1 game all year in basketball, baseball, softball etc in the playoffs. You should make it on merit, not simply because you are there.As a coach myself, I think this is a bad idea.
1) Shortening the preseason will cause more injuries. In an era where we are being expected to teach proper tackling without the use of the head to limit head injuries, people want to limit instruction time? Doesn't seem smart. With ever shrinking rosters, it would be better to go to a 9 game schedule and add a playoff game. Keeping the preseason as is.
2) What separates football from other sports is that not everyone gets in. This makes the end of the season more exciting and makes games meaningful throughout the year. That's just my personal opinion though.
i like this idea only because there would be better matchups in the first round. if there’s one thing i hate, it’s running clocks in the playoffs. and in smaller divisions, it’s really hard to tell who’s better between all the teams seeds 7-11 or so. i don’t hate this, i feel like the preseason is already too long anyways. however, 16 teams is a disaster
I don’t know why not lets kids play more games?
where did you get the number 24 from? 4 more teams in 28 Regions is 112 teams.24 more teams, communities, families, and coaching staffs get to have at least one postseason game and a playoff experience. Whats the problem?
travel, injuries, blowouts, watering down the actual accomplishment of qualifying...24 more teams, communities, families, and coaching staffs get to have at least one postseason game and a playoff experience. Whats the problem?

I think it makes more sense to shorten the regular season to 9 games and add a round to the playoffs. I definitely don't like the idea of a shorter preseason.
let em play!
