Wow. Watching the evening games is dreadful. Watching any game other than your team is dreadful. If not for fantasy football, would the NFL have half the viewership it has?
Games like 6-6. 3-3 in the 4th quarter. Dink and dink league, Dink and dunk. 5 yard pass. Is this basketball? Boring boring boring boring.
In a league where they adjusted the rules to elicit scoring, just the opposite is happening. Why is that?
1) The rosters are too small - Injuries, depth. I guess the NFL really is all about money. God forbid the extra 5 million a team would have to pay out to have some depth and consistency, not to mention identity.
2) The games are too short. No, not the game length itself, the number of plays taken out of the game via play clock, no out of bounds stoppages unless under 5 mins each half. I've even seen the clock running after penalites. Why? More commercials!
They complained the games were too long (like there's anything else better on TV Sunday than football).
I'm going to beat this drum until someone listens to me. Due to the lack of plays in the game and the game clock, you cannot get back into a game when behind by running. So you have to throw. Everyone sits deep so you can't beat them and what do you have. Dink and dunk 5 yard passes. It's BORING. It's not football.
3) Hyper sensitive pass interference (and holding). Makes it easy to fix a game.
4) Commercials - nothing needs to be said its soo bad.
5) Replays - nothing needs to be said its soo bad.
6) Politics - I watch football for an escape and because I love the game itself, not to discuss someone's emotional crisis or political view.
7) The No Fun League - You can cripple another player, but apparently celebrating victory is a no no. I actually like that stuff. Or should I say LIKED.
Feel free to add to the list. I'm really hating seeing my game dismantled by Goodell and the supporting cast.
