hmmm...interesting.

not sure how they can know the home/away part of it.

[freebird4181]

it's always been made out ahead of time, except for game the last game listed, home and away. it will depend on where you finish the year before.

i knew about the rotation.

the thing i wasn't sure about was the home/away games being decided. makes sense, though.

These eight season schedules will take each team through a cycle of games - home and away - against every other team in the league. In these eight seasons, every team will play every other team at least twice - once home and once away. After the 2009 season, a decision will be made on whether to continue with the same rotation or modify it.

the problem is, though, are they going to start the rotation over or just continue it? the home and away games could easily be backward or totally different than the way it has been. it is far from a sure thing that it will stay the same.

now after the season is over what is going to happen? that is the problem. do they extend it another year while they try to figure it out? are they going to be able to decide on a schedule rotation in between the 2009 and 2010 season? how long will it take to get that hashed out?

if they manage to extend the season by a couple games...what is that going to do to the rotation? where will those other games come from?

2010 is a pretty easy schedule.

i knew about the rotation.

Yeah, it's interesting that you haven't heard ANYTHING from the league regarding extending the current schedule rotation that runs through 2009. I think everyone assumes that 2010 will just start at the same place that we did in 2002.

I think the NFL has held back any official announcement because of this 18 game schedule idea and the current lack of a CBA after the next couple of years.

There has been one modification, allowing East Coast teams to not have to play in San Diego and Oakland (not sure if this applies to San Fran and Seattle) in the same season.

i think that was just something that kept them from having to be out there 2 weeks in a row.

they must have missed that on the 2016 schedule --- damn 4 trips to the west coast???
