Have we officially entered the Arena League era?
It seems like the league has gotten progressively more and more pass happy, but this year it's been insane. We've seen Brady throw for 500+ yards, and he has over 1300 yds and 11 TD in three games. We've had a rookie come in and throw for 400+ in his first two games, which is unheard of.

Today we've had ten different guys throw for 300+ yards. And Roethlisberger is well on his way to 300 tonight, Rodgers threw for 297 today, and we still have the MNF game to go. And many of these guys are not just skidding by... seven of them threw for 369 yards or more today alone.

Meanwhile, only three guys ran for 100+ yards today. Darren McFadden is the only guy seemingly running at an elite level. Chris Johnson has 46 carries for 98 yards on the season.

Through three weeks last season, 16 guys had thrown for 300 yards in a game. With SNF and MNF left in week three this year, we've had a QB throw for 300+ yards 33 times.

Is this what the NFL is going to become? Is the running game becoming an afterthought?

The NFL has created rules that favor the passing game.

So, yes, this is exactly what the NFL wants.

Defense has virtually been outlawed.

Of course. This is what Goodell and the powers-that-be wanted: a videogame, fantasy-football league where defense and pound-and-ground doesn't matter. They've tweaked the rules to the point that defenders can't play defense or even breathe on the quarterback. It's flag football. And it sucks.

We only need to watch Herm Edwards to know when the culture has changed.

When he's about to jump off a building THEN we know the NFL has morphed into this game.

the whole feel of pro football has become boring and waiting for the refs to call an obvious TD is dumb. I can't believe it. I didn't even watch a game today. I watched bits, like right now and it doesn't look very physical at all. It's like basketball on grass. snore.

Everytime a defensive player touches the QB or breaks up a pass they get up and immediately start looking for a flag to be thrown. It is disgusting anymore.

This is why im a fantasy guru...no one has adapted...people are still taking CJ, AP, charles, MID, etc...with their top picks instead of taking definite like Qb's and Wrs...even TEs...you fill your RBs width SLEEPERS...not top tier guys. I am 15-6 so far and that includes an 0-3 and a 1-2 (foster and manning)...4 3-0 teams so far...following the #1 guideline...elite QB and wrs first...

The 49ers beat the Bengals 13 to 8 today, so I would say no.

You missed out on some baddass early games. I have Redzone and it as absolutely crazy.

The exact opposite of boring. Not sure whats wrong with you.

That's not a hard nosed defensive battle that you used to see though.

That's two teams struggling on offense.

Teams that don't score points in bunches today are stopping themselves.

Yeah, really if you look at the scores, there were some low scoring games and all. But even then they weren't hard fought running battles. In that Niners game Frank Gore had a horrible day rushing.

I'm not sure if we're really there yet... but I'm curious to see if we reach the point where defense is not as important as offense.

I'm no lawyer, and don't know one that I like, but a couple of them were at the Flying Saucer let week (and not drunk!!), wondering when some player on defense would file against the NFL under EEO laws. I laughed, but both were seemed to indicate that there were provisions under that set of laws that might create a case for some of the dumbassery that we're seeing levied against players on defense. My God, by the time they got done yakking, they got into commerce law too... It'll never happen, but I'd sure like to be on the jury... It sure would be sweet....
