The game is just less enjoyable to me as I’ve gotten older. Last night I am watching and it just seems like a procedural mess. So much intervention between flags, challenges and commercials.


Yup. It has all just gotten out of hand. It seems like there's a few penalties every series, constant TV commercial stoppage time, etc...

It is just a sea of little things that have been adding up for a long time. And I kept ignoring or overlooking them because of how much I love watching football. But now I do not even turn a game on of the Saints are not playing and sometimes not even then. I am upset about it because I miss that past time.

The NFL was here before Donald Trump. It will be here after hes dead and buried. It will still make a ton of money.

I think it sucks as a product but its better than any professional sport we have. The only thing that will hurt the NFL is if people stop playing it because of the CTE, etc.

And the NFL sure will outlast any of the fat asses with bitch tits on this board

I'm pretty sure that's already happening, but we won't see it for another 10 years or so

Yes I'll blame some on the weather since it delayed the game an hour. People change the channel

26 penalties and no scoring causes people to change the channel

I believe the ratings are based on viewership at the beginning of the broadcast. I guess a weather delay could have impacted ratings.

Need a little more data than 1 Thursday night game before declaring the NFL is on life support.

As NBC Sports' Michael David Smith notes, however:

there are only so many times that the NFL can spin its ratings decline as being the result of extenuating circumstances. Whatever the reasons, the league’s television ratings are not the juggernaut they once were. The NFL still gets national television ratings that any other sport (or, for that matter, any entertainment program) would kill for, but it no longer gets the kinds of television ratings it got a few years back. -NBC Sports

Trump hates the NFL because they denied his bid for a team. This propaganda is a Trump tantrum. It isn’t killing the NFL, but it is manipulating the weak minded (Poli Board posters).

Obviously.

No, I'm not explaining how the Internet works to you.
