I hate the direction of the NFL right now.

True, but....

- Games in London 
---that's sort of a new one

- Probable expansion of the regular season
---been done before and the NFL survived

- Probable expansion of the playoffs by 1 team in each conference (for now) 
---been done before and the NFL survived (personally I think re-seeding once the teams are in would make more sense)

- FanDuel and DraftKings 
---gambling is nothing new, but these will probably be regulated out eventually

- Moving the PAT back
---Meh, this one goes either way.  People pictured more exciting 2pt conversions and so far it's led to more frustration, blown games, and fired kickers

- Ugly Nike uniforms, constant uniform changes on the horizon
---ho-hum uniform overhauls are nothing new, though.  I guess the new ones are getting uglier and more video game-like

- Talk of more games being broadcast exclusively on the net
---this is pretty trendy and new for the wrong reasons, true

- Terrible officiating thanks to countless new rules
---No argument, but I see why the NFL wants to protect players/investments, and maybe the fact that everything is shown in HD from 100 different angles and 100 times is what is making it seem like more calls are blown these days compared to the old days when a guy lost the ball, the other team got it, ran a play and life went on

- Multiple teams on the move
---nothing too new.  Gotta follow the money, also the Rams, Raiders, and Chargers were all in LA before anyways.

- The Pro Bowl becoming more and more of a joke
---I propose we replace the Pro Bowl with the Toilet Bowl where the bottom 2 teams in the NFL play to see who gets the #1 overall pick
