Behold NFL 2030s: Playing 18-game regular season, every team visits overseas, two preseason games

PHOENIX – Robert Kraft, the visionary who bought the flailing New England Patriots in the 1990s and turned them into an NFL dynasty, was imagining the NFL's future when he spoke with reporters on Monday.

Kraft, who definitely gets it, would like to see a future NFL that plays 18 regular-season games, plays only two preseason games, includes two bye weeks and, oh yeah, has every single team playing one of its games internationally.

So there it is … the NFL's dream scenario for the 2030s.
