The NFL will still be very popular for awhile but certain things could affect that. One being enough rule changes where the game isn't recognizable anymore. Other factors such as a watered down product could cause some interest to be lost. For example adding too many additional teams, expanding the playoffs where as half of the majority of teams make the playoffs to name a few.
