There’s bad football being played all around and not just here. 

The NFL honestly does feature a lot of bad football these days. Just being honest. By and large the college game is generally a better product and I'm not just saying that because my college team is a lot better than my pro team. Casually watching games that I have no rooting interest in, the college games just generally tend to be better.

There’s so many factors that are going into it (I think the biggest being shoving big markets/bad teams down the prime time throats ie NY, Chicago, NE) but also players are not developing like they should across the league and partly I think that’s a patience issue. Less practices than 10 years ago plus different schemes from college to pros.

I think a big factor is defenses are adapting. NFL offenses have been becoming more and more college like with spread formations, lots more passing, an emphasis on getting the ball out quick, etc. and defenses are starting to adapt and catch up. It feels like these days you have a handful of elite offenses, another handful of good offenses, and then a whole lot of bad offenses. I don't know what the next rule changes will be to get more consistent scoring but it'll probably be something to help out the pass blockers because these OL are just getting whooped by defenses. They can't block these guys.

Same with college basketball. The atmosphere is just better.

      Best Way to Watch Games this Season??

      By PanthersATL · Posted

      Sunday Ticket is now offering a monthly subscription if you're not interested in subscribing for the full package Keep in mind that the full package will be less expensive than getting billed monthly for the same timeframe.  But for a one-off month situation? Certainly an option to consider they also don't seem to mind if 2 households share the same Sunday Ticket login. If you call and ask for discounts, they kinda allude to "do you have a friend you can share the cost with" in the conversation

      Watching ALL the games will require: Antenna or cable access to local broadcast partners to view the games of the local team. Due to blackout restrictions, the local games will not be available on Sunday Ticket.  What this means is that you DON'T NEED Sunday Ticket to view those local team's games. All games for a local team will ALWAYS be available on a local broadcast partner, no subscription required I've had success streaming the evening Sunday and Monday national games directly off the NFL/NBC/ABC websites, no subscription required. That said, ESPN may require login via your cable provider account - but it's included in your cable fee, so have fun with that.  NBC is available for free via antenna (or avail via cable, take your pick -- and ABC has been simulcasting the ESPN games, so that's also an antenna/free optio. The Peacock and Netflix exclusive games will require subscriptions to those services if the teams are not your local team YouTube will broadcast the Brazil game free  NFL Network for those random thursday games that aren't your local team... until the ESPN partnership comes into play, in which case your ESPN subscription should give you access (lots of assumptions with this bullet) Everything else is pretty much Sunday Ticket or go to your local bar I may have missed one, but the general gist is above In short, don't believe the online influences who say you need to purchase a full-year subscription to a service to watch "all" the NFL games (ie full year of Peacock). Because you don't need a full-year sub.   So no -- there is not a single service that will let you watch ALL the games Sunday Ticket will only cover you only for the sunday daytime games.

      Aaaaaaand... ND immediately throws an INT. Tried to run that same screen they've ran a dozen times tonight and Miami had two defenders sitting on it and he threw it anyway.
