I'm against the 18 game schedule... much too long and injuries will be even a bigger factor on which teams make the playoffs and which ones don't. And they will be playing real games in August in 100 degree weather... much too hot for football. I say cut the preseason games to two and keep the 16 game schedule as is. I would prefer the preseason games to start on Labor day weekend with the real games starting in mid-September.

Although, I'm not sure about any argument against the 18 game schedule due to records.. NFL used to be 12 games long and then 14 games long way back when.
