You nailed it with the penalties, especially pass interference. Most popular third down play in the pros is: Go long, throw the ball high and far, get a chicken-poop PI call for an automatic first down.

We need an official NFL ratings thread so the circle jerk is confined to that instead of this weekly BS

Dan lebatard describes it best



In a game where you have to fight and battle for a few yards at a time with world class athletes, you can get 50+ yards on one play because an old fat guy trying to run while mouth breathing sees a little contact

I’m not even referring to last nights game in particular. I responded to a person that says Thursday night games suck, which usually they do. Take the Saints/Falcons shite show last year as an example.


I thought the 4th quarter last night was entertaining.

I watched that entire turdfest. At least it ended with a bit of excitement.

Game was boring. Watched US Open instead because of the rain delay.

NBA ratings LAST year were much higher. This year the games were blowouts. We're still #2 in pro-sports.

nfl is ruining its product with shitty rules and penalties. its sad.


Most of the penalties last night were basic things though, like offsides, illegal procedure, holding, etc.

It looked like the 1st preseason game instead of the 1st regular season game.

I blame that on teams not playing their regulars much during pre-season games.

It had a lot of shite going against it, with the weather delay being a huge dealio.

You have a game which would of started at 8ish est, now starting in the 9pm time frame. That's late.

Is there some backlash, sure, but that delay was brutal. People on EST already complain about games starting 2 late.

I don't disagree, but there probably weren't a ton of viewers still awake to see it due to the late start and the sloppy play.

Weather delay was issue.

it has been long overdue imho.

the sms bowl tonight should fire things up, but i wouldnt think interest would be too high. i yearn for an smu/wash st bowl game.
