Pretty soon the Superbowl will be on the same day as the March Madness Final. The XFL season will overlap the NFL.

They would be moving in the other direction, going down to three preseason games. The playoffs wouldn't be any longer.

Right now, the NFL with 32 teams and 16 games has a balanced scheduling mechanism. A 17 game season would make that impossible. Seven playoff teams means an entire division could theoretically make the playoffs. That's just silly.

The XFL season will overlap the NFL.

Which will kill off the XFL. Part of the reason they are doing this.
