It takes an extremely ballsy head coach to sit that guy for a full season, and most just don't have the guts for it |

If you're averaging less than that, the defense is effectively meeting its goal of forcing you to sustain a long drive with lots of first downs and lots of chances to **** up. A good run game in this case is also exactly what you're looking for in the pass game against that defense... ~3-6 yard chunks. And yeah, if a defense can make Mahomes look bad, about 30 other team are completely ****ed at the quarterback position. |

If it's boring to other people, I don't give a shit. I have obsessed over them to an unhealthy degree my whole life and they're finally paying me back for that fidelity.

The commercials, the wokeness, the fact that its on 3-4 days a week, and the fact that Im not 30 years old anymore have changed my NFL enjoyment for sure.

The problem for me is even the Skins offense with a rookie QB looks more dynamic than ours. It's frustrating.

Bills offense doesn’t appear to be boring

Yeah, in a few cases, like Mahomes and Allen, the defenses ignore runs. But the question was about the NFL in general. And for the NFL in general, yeah it's boring, and the lack of a decent rushing attack appears to be a significant part of the problem. But if a team can generate a decent running game, defenses (not playing Mahomes/Allen/maybe Rodgers?) will drop a S into the box, leaving one side of the formation in 1v1 situations, that can be attacked. The problem seems to be that most NFL teams don't have a good running game, and then that issue is compounded by the relative lack of quality QB play at fundamental levels. Or something like that. As just happened in the WAS/CIN game. |
