Is the NFL boring now?
Let's bring this over from the other thread because I think this is a worthy discussion topic.
I know we're all watching because hey the Chiefs are the cream of the crop but in general is the NFL a more boring product now? |

I don't hang on every game anymore.
Even the Chiefs. As much success as they've had the last 5 years it's really hard to get excited about the regular season. |

I find the media coverage of the regular season to be very annoying. They act like every game is the Super Bowl (especially SNF & MNF), when it's definitely not the case. These games are basically pre-season bullshit for the Playoffs.

To the average fan, perhaps. I’ve always preferred more balance between the offense and defense, so I’m entertained.

The issue is what is happening now isn't even great defense it's literally "lets sit back and hope they poop their pants" and the entire league is playing that way now. Like I'm watching all these games and the quality of play isn't good and there's literally no big plays, you're lucky if you get 1 a game. |

Teams see it work against us and other high powered offenses, and decide it can work for them too... but its cyclical, Reid and other top minds will adjust to it eventually and then its back to the drawing board for DC's |

Yes it is undoubtedly. The product is worse and people will start to tune out unless it’s the highlight games.
This is exactly why people don’t like soccer. It’s boring and not enough scoring

Remember when that Chiefs/Rams 54-51 game was supposed to usher in a new era of explosive offensive football… not so much.

It's been a pretty shit product for years, but mentioned in the GDT last night it really seems like late game officiating has been significantly worse the past few years, which really sucks the life out of games... I get to a point where I'm waiting for a flag after every ****ing play.
Oh, no flag..... no late flag? No review? Are you sure about no flag? Ah, we won. Cool. Yet, as bad as all the flags have been with completely phantom calls, they still miss the most blatantly obvious shit sometimes, too.
