The NFL has added an additional game and thereby an additional week to its regular season schedule. As such, Week 14 has teams that have BYE weeks. This has the ability to affect the outcome of teams that make the playoffs.
Options Mentioned are:
1. Do Nothing. The schedule is set up for each team to play every other team once. This is just something you have to take into account.
2. Add a regular season game. This would allow playoffs to be BYE week free. Options for this game are:
A) Randomly assigned
B) Designated Rival
C) Seeded game (1 vs 14, 2 vs 13, etc)
D) Other suggestions
3. Expand the Playoffs. Alternatives are:
A) Everyone makes the playoffs and the Top 2 Teams get a BYE in Week 14. In theory, the NFL BYE week affects everyone.
B) Top 3 Teams and the top Points team get BYES in Week 14, the Bottom 2 teams go home and then the 8 remaining teams play.
C) Other Suggestions
