Ideally, the new agreement will END preseason all together, open up opportunites for more informal scrimmages, expand rosters so there is ZERO reason to have a formal pre season game to decide who the third TE will be and, when the curtain goes up, when the stadiums are filled up, the lights on and commercials rolling, it is for real.
And stay at 16 games.
Pat Kirwin was talking about this on Sirus recently. He's talked to a bunch of coaches and GM's who would welcome a reduced preseason (2 games). He said you would see a increase in the number of live scrimmages between teams. It actually gives the players trying to make the team more live reps than they get in preseason games. I remember when the Steelers and Redskins would always have scrimmages during training camp.
