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.

      Ticket Prices

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Fees nowadays are ridiculous. After purchasing concert tickets for my son’s 18th birthday and paying the rest of our HHI trip with 3 other families, I’m shocked at how much they are. Honestly, it’s grand theft. Some is taxes but in a world where everything is electronic, fees should be cheaper. Electrons don’t cost 10-30% of the event.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Nope, that’s not the disconnect. In 2022, our GM knew he was going QB in the 2023 draft. You are talking about risking fans involvement on a team that’s been basically bottom 3 in the NFL from 2018 to now. There is no risk when you are that bad. We were right to want Fitterer to tank in 2022 and get rid of anyone who could bring us big value and extra cap room for future years when we aren’t winning 2-7 wins a year. We knew we wanted a rookie QB so we didn’t trade assets for picks and get a better draft slot so we ended up only getting a 2nd for Burns and threw in DJ Moore plus an early 2nd instead of a 1st, which basically lost us an early 2nd. The “risk” to our franchise’s losing culture ended up being around 4 1sts of total value. Yep, I refuse to listen to the other perspective that lost us around 4 1sts of value. At least our fan involvement is so high that our stadium isn’t chock full of visiting fans since we’ve won so much since 2022. Again, you won’t change my mind that we should have tanked in 2022 and had another 2-4 Browns/Horns on this team.
