NFL  > General NFL  > 2012 NFL Scheduling Format a Dud?
January 16, 2013, 04:09 AM
Now that the season is over, do people think the way the NFL scheduled conference games at the end was all that good? I really disliked the fact that in some conferences, you play your conference rival and then played them again just 2-3 weeks later. I didn't like that at all. I guess I would have preferred the conference games be spaced out at least 4 weeks. It created some drama because you could directly affect your destiny by beating those in your conference (Redskins v. Cowboys finale and Vikings v. Packers finale) to get into the playoffs, but I was just turned off at the idea of facing a conference rival so soon. Anyone else feel the same?

nope,.....i love it !..........i was sick-n-tired watching the jets ''back-door'' into the playoffs after the non-div. colts ''rested'' their starters week-17......*a few yrs. back*,.....that final ''division'' game becomes very crucial when everybody's 8-7,9-6 =aka- NFC-East.

Speaking of scheduling, I am very happy that the Pats-Ravens game is the late game Sunday.
