There have not been a lot of good football games this year…like at all. The Jets/Bills week 1 stands out (which was more entertaining than actually good football but I’ll count it), Eagles/Commanders a few weeks ago was pretty great but like…I gotta rack my brain to find any real memorable games. There’s been so much bad offense, bad reffing, and just total blowouts it’s hard to even get invested in RedZone some weeks, let alone full games.
And with this kind of play it starts to make the bad stuff less forgivable like the insane amount of commercials and ridiculous reffing that stops what feels like every game at some point dead in its tracks. I’ll never stop paying attention, none of us will, but NFL Sundays are starting to feel less fun and more like an obligation.
The product has definitely gone downhill. Goodall has always been a disaster ; they took a product that was bulletproof and ran it into the ground . It’s all hype and nonsense. You been to a game recently? Blasting music telling us to cheer , tv timeouts stopping play after every big play , incredible prices on everything starting when you hit the parking lot . Rules so messed up that we have to watch multiple replays in slow motion to decide where the ball is placed whether a reception is completed or a touchdown scored . It’s pathetic. I’ve been watching games since the 1960’s and it’s never been worse . Just because a game is close doesn’t make it good football.
