I just never got the parity argument when the NFL has had a number of miserable franchises for an extended period of time. Thank God the Raiders have seemingly got out of their funk

I enjoy college football and follow my 'Noles but I only care to follow Tom Brady and catch a Bucs game whenever they come on since I'm in Miami when it comes to the NFL.

Honestly, I've fallen off football once I gotten into my own life.

most of the teams suck. most of the quarterbacks suck. the coaches are stupid but act like they're the smartest people in the room. the quarterbacks that are actually considered "good" are not even that good. the rule changes and modern schemes make most teams play the same

Style of play is the biggest problem with the NFL right now. Basically every offense is some form of dink and dunk with very few exceptions. There are only a handful of featured running backs anymore, so the overall star power of the league is down as a result.

Bad teams could be entertaining in the past because more teams aired it out or had a star RB who could carry the load.

Bad choice for a first game. Kansas City? A good team but not a top draw.

Compare to the NBA first day of regular season - Boston v. Cleveland and Houston v. Golden State. Stars all over the place.
The Rating for the NFL game weren't bad.

No defensive stars anymore because of targeting.

I think I have a thread on about it.

I've lost interest in the NFL and the NBA. NBA is a 3 point contest. NFL is all about passing the ball.

Both leagues have bad officiating. Both leagues cater to casual fans, so I am done.

My boy said something interesting about the NFL that spoke to my lessening interest. Back in the days, each team had their own identities. Slme were run heavy, others pass happy. Defenses had their own styles. Now, every team plays the same outside of a handful of teams. Makes it repetitive.

I feel the same way about the NBA until playoff time

So. Cal
Each passing year i get kinda :ld: about football. Just a few years ago id be hype even for preseason and waiting from januarary til august was a bytch. I guess u can blame it on age but the fact the league and its rules have gotten wacker plays a role as well. I dunno how goodell has kept his position for long. also, once rodgers goes out or retires, my interest will go down ten fold because ive seen how trash my team is without an elite qb :scust:
