NFL May Expand Playoffs In 2015 NFL Commisioner Roger Goodell says that the playoffs may expand in 2015, according to a recent article in Pro Football Talk. Goodell discusses how the expanded playoffs would work. “First, we have to make the recommendation,” Goodell told reporters after Tuesday’s ownership meetings. “It would probably be the 2015 season because there are a lot of scheduling issues in the spring of next year. I don’t think we have everything resolved, including talking to the NFLPA, and making sure that is done the right way.” http://theshadowleague.com/articles/nfl-may-expand-playoffs-in-2015
