Should the NFL stop having AFC vs. NFC games during the regular season?

For the following reasons:

It would rekindle a (very) little of the old AFL / NFL days rivalry.

Main reason is this, thanks to the 2002 realingment, with it's 4 division, 2 wildcard format. It makes the inter-conference games even more important than in the past, sometimes equal to a divisional game. And there are not enough of them in the regular season. You actually need to eliminate the 4 cross-conferance games each year so you can have as many potential playoff tiebreaker 1 on 1 games as possible in the regular season.

That would give the Super Bowl even a little more mystique.

Besides, we have seen more 8-8 playoff teams from 2002-2006 than from 1978-2001. I think it would improve the quality of playoff teams.

Just a thought.

Or you now what? The old 3 division, 3 wildcard system would be great.

I'll take either-or.

I'm not sure I agree with the inter-conference games being more important than they were. Regardless of who you play, the idea is to win as many games as you can so you can get into the playoffs.

Plus having those games agaisnt the other conference allows fans to see players they otherwise wouldn't see. And actually, when the NFL went to the 4-division format, they streamlined the schedule so that every team will play each other at least every 4 years, and every team will visit every other team's stadium at least once every 8 years. In the old system some teams never got to play each other (for instance, Tampa Bay, after all these years, has never played in Buffalo). It's designed to be very fan-friendly, and I think it's great.

If you want to add more intra-conference games, you'd have to lengthen the schedule. If your logic is correct, perhaps it is time to go to 18 regular-season games and 2 preseason games.
