The NFL Owner's Meetings start next week.
Already, teams are putting forth some ideas to be discussed regarding rule changes from instant replay to extra points to kickoffs.
This year the convention will take place in Phoenix, Ariz., where the meetings turn into their own networking event, hosting owners, general managers and head coaches to discuss the future of the league.

Representing the Redskins in this shot is head coach Jack Pardee (first row, third from right), amazingly in close proximity to head coaches Dick Vermeil and Tom Landry of the Eagles and Cowboys, respectively.
Also pictured are Bill Walsh, Bart Starr and Don Shula.
