**** you NFL - Week 4 Bye

[Action]

Want to talk about decreasing injuries but giving teams week 4 byes? Want teams to play 13+ straight weeks of football with no rest

Why would a team even need a bye after playing 3 ****ing games??

[B-Large]

Meh, urgency is in red territory... It's do or die...


That being said....


**** you NFL

[The1percentKid]

It was bound to happen. Haven't we had relatively middle of the season byes lately?

With that said, **** you NFL

[spdirty]

Just start out 13-0, then rest the least 3 weeks and we only have 10 straight weeks.

**** you nfl.

Whatever it will mean nothing come Jan. Denver has had great byes lately.

[go_broncos]

hopefully..it will not be 13-3..it's a curse for us.

[XXXII&III]

In any event, **** you NFL.

for a League so concerned a out lawsuit, you'd think they'd have the same break for everyone...oh well...that's the draw.

It is truly stupid. I understand that they want to keep as full a schedule as possible for as many weeks as possible during the season. But I think the networks could live with 2-4 weeks in the middle of the season where the schedule is cut back by 25% - 50%.

After the national television games, the first thing I usually look at when there is a new schedule is the BYE week. We've been pretty fortunate, for the most part. Week four is about as inopportune as it gets.

If the Raiders are their usual selves, Fox should pull a Popovich in Week 10 @Oakland and give the older vets a week off.

Okay, not completely serious on that, but in reality we were up 35 at the half on them last meeting, so...

[Kid A]

6 out of 8 on the road stretch too, after a home heavy opening half.

[R8R H8R]

A week 4 bye, 3 consecutive road games, NE on the road(Again!), KC in late November, and we play the toughest division in the league(NFC W).

If we get the number 1 or 2 seed in the AFC again this year, then we would have to have a SB team again.

[Punisher]

Bills at home thats a bye week there

[DENVERDUI55]

Everyone is whining about early bye then every year come playoff time the talking head talk is a bye during wildcard round makes teams rusty.

How did the league survive before they implemented bye weeks?
