Man I forgot how bad it is. Everything's a penalty, when was they last time you seen a punt return without one? It's not just the bills either

Re: The new NFL and penalties
Between the really bad calls, and the really bad 'misses' that aren't called, the sport resembles the NBA, and that's not a good thing.YardRat Wall of Fame

Re: The new NFL and penalties
The NFL is largely unwatchable.
If I wasn't emotionally invested in the Bills, I'd literally never watch a single game. This is no longer a compelling sport like it was in the 80s and 90s (or for you non-millennials, how cool it must have been going back even further).
I can't even remember the last Superbowl I watched.Disclaimer: The sentiment expressed in this post is strictly for entertainment purposes only.

Re: The new NFL and penalties
I thought I read somewhere that the NFL approved that they would have full time refs starting this season
yes here it is...
Full-time game officials will be on the field this season.
The NFL will hire up to 24 full-time game officials for the 2017 season from its current crop of 124 officials, the league and the NFL Referees Association announced Wednesday.
The NFL and the NFLRA agreed to experiment with full-time officials as part of the last collective bargaining agreement and the NFLRA approved the move. The program will allow current officials to apply to become full-time.
Full-time officials will be hired at each of the seven officiating positions.

Re: The new NFL and penalties
Been trending in this direction for a few years. Even fantasy football bores me now. I used to watch every game every week. Now I watch the bills til the loss is probable, then i turn it off. I used to watch nfl network all the time too, but I haven't turned that on in years. Penalties, rule changes and over commercialization have ruined the game.
