The NFL is getting harder and harder to watch because of all the delays with it. Whether it is for replay, too many flags, commercials, etc. I also agree that the NFL went way overboard on the illegal contact. I also feel they are way overboard on roughing the passer and for "hitting a defensless receiver" Especially the latter and the illegal contact has made it almost pointless to have defensive backs, especially at the safety position. There are 3 things that will happen if the NFL continues the way it is reguarding pass coverage. 1. Emmitt's rushing record will never be broken because a running back will never get enough carries to come close to breaking the record. 2. Jerry Rice's receiving records will be blown away because a 4 to 1 or 5 to 1 pass to run ratio will be considered conservative. and 3. Any game with inaccurate QB(s) will take 4+ hours to complete.
I have watched the least amount of NFL games and more Collage games this year than ever before in my life with the exception fo 1985 when I saw Army play (I believe) Western Michigan in person and did not get to see any NFL games due to the military. This is also the first time in years I have not gone to see an NFL game in person.
