As the title suggests, the NFL needs to change how they schedule teams after bye weeks. Teams that come off of bye weeks should be playing each other. It is not right, nor is it fair for the team that is not coming off of a bye to have to play against a team that has come off a bye week. I’m a 49ers fan so I can only speak about our schedule. I’m not saying that the only reason the 9ers lost was because of the bye week. The 49ers had a lot of issues, no doubt about it. Even still, we played against the Browns in their home stadium, after the Browns came off a bye. This weekend we play the Bengals who are also coming off a bye. On top of that, my team is coming off of a short week. Again, not saying that is a massive factor, but it does seem right.
