I wouldn't expand the 53 man roster. That's what makes the league competitive.

We might not have Ron Parker, Jaye Howard or Spencer Ware if that was already in place.

Yeah I agree with you. I like the replay review. It sucked when a blown call that cost you the game was just the way it was and there was nothing to be done about it. I think they just need to reduce the amount of reviews is all. And most importantly, they NEED TO BE QUICKER ABOUT THEM. It shouldn't take 10 minutes to review most of these.

And of course they have to change the catch rules. Clear possession and 2 feet/elbow/butt down and it's a catch. The ground only matters if the receiver is falling while making the catch. None of this crap where a player catches it and takes 3 steps and then falls down and it comes out on the ground. It's a really simple judgement call the officials should make. Clear possession and feet/elbow down.

Even with Sunday Ticket Max, I'm watching less football than in prior years. I barely watched the Denver-Carolina, Patriots-Texans, Cowboys-Bears, last night's game and most of the afternoon games. The Sunday night games have been boring and non-competitive.

It's pretty much the Chiefs for me this year and that's it.

I'll watch Max because of fantasy football. But it's not like I'm really watching it because I'll put the overview on that shows 8 games and I'll just move the audio around depending on if my player has the ball.

Well I predicted it years ago when I laughed off Goodells ridiculous idea of a veterans combine. I agree the nfl has oversaturated the market. Goodell is a horribly overrated commissioner. He overmarketed the game. And his refusal as well as all the commissioners prior refusal to address player safety is taking a toll. Players are getting injured left and right and the lack of a training camp has created a poor quality product on the field.

If you want more scientific reasons, the crackdown on sports betting is enormous, lots of people cutting the cord and watching online, and we are witnessing one of the most contentious presidential campaigns. That and people now have tons of competing media options. It's not just nfl or the other shit on TV, the nfl is competing with Netflix and Amazon too.

And again, if people shrug off domestic violence and putting serial rapists on the hof ballot, but get riled up about this to the point of boycott... I mean, seriously.

Good answer :clap:

The only afternoon game I've watched this year was the Chiefs-Jets game.

We were at the beach last Sunday morning for a birthday party, so I didn't watch any of the morning games.

I'm just not interested, I guess, outside of the Chiefs.

For people who say the NFL sucks, they'd all go bonkers if it suddenly disappeared for a year and there was no football on Sunday's

It hasnt become pc enough to keep me from watching, no

Whats worse than the pc aspect to me, is the constant tinkering with the rules, 90% of the time its to the detriment of the game... look no further than this years emphasis on "taunting" for just one example, the flags they're throwing on that make me wanna puke

Having said all that, I just love the game too much to give up on it just yet... but if it continues down the current path, my interest could die within 10 years

Not for this guy. I would miss it, but there are plenty of other enjoyable things to do.

One thing is certain: the older I get, the less ****s I give about the NFL.

What is enjoyable on a 30 degree day with freezing rain? Watching football on the couch, and that's about it

I guess I have a few more options in life.

Can you PM me so I can do other things in bad weather?

Miserable people won't be happy no matter where they are or what they do.
