Do you think the NFL will every require all NFL franchises to have a domed stadium?

For "fairness" and integrity of the league.

At some point they will probably require all new builds to be domed or retractable roof. It kind of sucks. Varied weather is one of the best things about the NFL especially late in the season and playoff push but I get they want the best possible product and fans to have a great time and spend all their money in comfort and climate controlled stadiums with amenities and luxury boxes. As fun as the 49ers game was last night with both teams scoring with ease, I don't think I would like it if every NFL game had 75 points scored. Dome stadiums don't guarantee high scoring but they tend to favour offenses.

I love watching a good snow bowl, but it sucks when your team's air em out offense gets beaten by a slow, sure footed running back. Injuries are also an issue.

When is the last time the Jets had a well functioning air it out offense?

I do see your point but inclement weather games are such a big part of late season football. I loved watching the goal posts sway and kicks and throws go off line in the Packers vs Bears game Saturday.

The 49ers play like crap in bad weather I should be rooting for all domes. They put up huge points in domes this year. Averaging 31.2 points a game in domes. But I think NFL would kind of suck if every game was a track meet.

It was a hypothetical. The Jets are an all weather shitshow

It's good to be consistent.
