rdfs:comment | - The 1975 NFL season was the 56th regular season of the National Football League. The league made two significant changes to increase the appeal of the game: 1.
* The surviving clubs with the best regular season records were made the home teams for each playoff round. Previously, game sites rotated by division. 2.
* The league pioneered the use of equipping American football referees with wireless microphones to announce penalties and clarify complex and/or unusual rulings to both fans and the media.

abstract | - The 1975 NFL season was the 56th regular season of the National Football League. The league made two significant changes to increase the appeal of the game: 1.
* The surviving clubs with the best regular season records were made the home teams for each playoff round. Previously, game sites rotated by division. 2.
* The league pioneered the use of equipping American football referees with wireless microphones to announce penalties and clarify complex and/or unusual rulings to both fans and the media. Instead of a traditional Thanksgiving Day game hosted by the Dallas Cowboys, the league scheduled a Buffalo Bills at St. Louis Cardinals contest. This would be the first season since 1966 that the Cowboys did not play on that holiday. The season ended with Super Bowl X when the Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the Dallas Cowboys.
