Nzoner's Game Room>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 for one am not bored by watching the Kansas City Chiefs dominate the NFL as a dynasty.

Players didn't want to practice hard in August and the owners wanted an extra game so the entire league is rusty as fuck for the first month or so.

I don't mind it, I like when teams do different things to try to find a hole in a defense and then exploit it

yeah a 54-51 game is fun but honestly is a 54-51 game any less stressful to watch than a 25-19 game?

Oh I don't care about stressful, but when the Chiefs are almost always in the 3:30 slot I'd rather get some enjoyment out of the noon slot.

No.

Minds have been warped by fantasy football and gambling.

Is it wrong to wish for this to be the NFL again?

This 1977 CBS NFL Today intro is fucking spectacular. The plays get progressively more illegal and fucked up to the point I was almost expecting some guy to get murdered on the field by the end. Do yourself a favor and watch this.

I made a point in a thread a couple of weeks ago that 2 high safety is akin to NBA centers camping in the lane and that is why the NBA instituted the illegal defense rule. That opened up the offense and more scoring but every team thinks they are Steph Curry and jack up alot of 3's now and that is now becoming boring.

Mahomes broke the NFL I think, like Curry did the NBA and all these QB's think they can be him and defenses said f that and let's play everyone 2 high.

NOTHING about that game was boring last night.

If you thought that was a boring game you have ADD.

You are conflating "down offensive numbers" with guys playing defense better when today they aren't making plays they are just praying for a penalty or a bad play to bail them out.
TV ratings for the NFL have never been better.

I'll be honest, I think this is actually the root of why you made this thread. If I'm wrong let me know, but it seems like you're bored because Mahomes is playing like Alex Smith right now.
