It has only been two years since the NFL regular season was extended to 17 games. But already the owner of the Dallas Cowboys is seeking another extension.

Munich – It was only two years ago that the regular season in the NFL was extended to 17 games. But already Cowboys owner Jerry Jones thinks it’s time to add another game.

So he told “105.3 The Fan” that he would like to extend the regular season by one game and shorten the preseason by one game, on the other hand.

“One more I see, and I’m a big proponent of it,” the owner said. “I think that’s the right measure. You get better when you play those games and less in the presesaon. “

Cowboys owner wants 18 games

And further, “There was a time when there were six preseason games in the NFL – for those of you interested in history. I’d rather play two or three preseason games and 18 games in the regular season. That’s what I’m advocating. “

The fact that Jones would welcome an extra game is, of course, likely to be linked to monetary considerations. More ticket sales, more income from TV advertising, etc. would keep the coffers ringing.
