Thoughts on why the NFL is so boring theses days

[CarolinaKid]

i really tried hard this yr to get back into the nfl, but i just cant for some reason.I love what the cowboys are doing this year, but the rest i dont miss at all.i have been channel surfing the games today and i just cant get even into one game, soccer i think has taken the place for the nfl from me.

Biggest personal pet peeve of NFL:

After a score...

COMMERCIAL

Then kickoff (very likely just a touchback - 4-5 second play)

Then another COMMERCIAL.

Drives me me crazy every time.

There is no momentum with all the commercials they take. I'd rather see player wear ads on their jerseys than this shit.

SEC yes the kickoff suck now as more time than not it a touchback, ref miss too many calls when in this day and time with all our tech it should never happen imo.i miss the 70's and 80's style of play i guess.but to not have money on a game, man i dont get how people can watch this nfl today

I don't like the fact either that alot of the games are decided by awful calls that the damn zebras make. Then if you question them (Player or Coach) they get fined or suspended. The No Fun League will be losing me shortly if something doesnt change soon

*No accountability on the establishment side

 

[CarolinaKid]

i wonder how long before they take the punt out of it, the kickoff is out of it for the most part these days

If it is so boring, just ignore it instead of starting dumb threads.

 

[CarolinaKid]

sorry big wang, every thread cant be a 10, just like every poster name cant be a 10

 

[EV180]

I concur that ckid is a pretty shitty name.

My last name is Wang and I am 6'4" 230. Thus the name Big Wang. A bunch of you guys are way too obsessed with cocks.

 

[CarolinaKid]

people with name like big wang are for geeks, are you a geek

 

[CarolinaKid]

do you you really know what a pussy look like, i doubt it sir, what the crap up in your girl or wife grow up asshole

 

[RenoChazz]

I think it's more watchable now than it was when I was a kid. There are pros and cons. HD, and coverage is much better now. Plus I just remember games being blow outs all the time.

Way too many pass interference calls.

Absolutely. The officiating is much better, the TV production is much better, the games are much closer and we don't see endless three yard rushes and punts. The two main problems are lack of action and the game has become too stagnant. Even if we don't count half time there is about one play every 80 seconds. That means you turn on a game, watch for 20 minutes and see only 15 plays. It's becoming baseball-level slow.

Over the past 10 years we've had 170 weeks of regular season NFL and it feels like it's been the same thing for all of them. Come up with something new to change what we're watching.
