Obviosly home field advantage in the super bowl isn't an option, and you can't really play it before the season is done.
You could have it during the off week before the Super Bowl with no Super Bowl players involved. Having it after the big game is entirely anticlimactic. That might increase the TV audience some. But there's really not much you can do to get the players to care other than putting up big money to the winning team.

Isn't that what they're switching to, starting next season?

Possibly. I hadn't heard, I just thought it seemed like a no-brainer for several years.

Yeah, I think the Pro Bowl is Jan. 31 and the Super Bowl is Feb. 7.
