Anyone notice how poorly played a lot of these NFL games are getting? Last night's Seahawks-Broncos game was ugly until the very end. As was last Sunday's Eagles-Jaguars game in London - terrible football until its memorable ending. And the Sunday before it felt like 3 to 4 hours wasted trying to get through a thoroughly awful Vikings-Dolphins game.
I'm wondering if the NFL is getting to a point where 80% of its games are nearing an unwatchable quality. Ten and twenty years ago I really took it for granted how competently played most NFL games were, especially when it came to game planning and execution on offense. A matchup between two statistically average QBs could still turn into both offenses gaining over 300 yards through the air.
