On today's episode of The Bill Barnwell Show, Doug Kyed of The Boston Herald joins the show for the next installment of the Fixing the NFL series, breaking down what changes need to occur off the field to improve the game. They brainstorm ideas like if The NFL Draft should come before free agency, implementing minor league teams to the NFL, and why the league should abolish the playoff seeding system. Later, they break down their "Boomer takes," including why teams should have nine wins to be considered playoff-eligible. Plus, Doug shares one of the most insane ideas on the podcast that would change life as we know it.
