Given the systemization of the NFL, I can't see teams being willing to cut the preseason down from it's current 4 games.

If you want more games to mean something in week 17, it's simple add one more playoff team to each Conference and only give the team with the best record a first round bye. That would bring a lot more games into play for meaning something in the final two weeks. Plus it would create two extra playoff games of revenue in the Wild Card round which combined with added T.V. money would put more money in owners pockets.
