The 16/18 idea seems like a negotiating ploy that isn't well thought through. It is an absolute certainty that pretty quickly a team will have to sit their QB for the last two games after they've turned their season around and look like a possible playoff team. No amount of, They should have prepared for this..., is going to make it any less of a disaster for the NFL and that team's fans. Does the NFL really want the end of a season to be dominated by talk about a stupid rule that keeps players from playing?

edit: Or what about an owner that plays all his guys and dares the NFL to make him forfeit when he needs twenty replacements in weeks 17 and 18?
