Wow. Significant drop. I def think several factors...kaep situation, goodell leadership...[/QUOTE]

Matchups are likely the main issue, Cards/Jets and Texans/Colts = yawn. Too bad they can't flex games all year.

I didn't even turn the game on last night. Part of it might be the officiating. It's been an issue for years and it doesn't seem to ever get any better. Just terrible calls all weekend long. Someone needs to clean it up. No one wants to spend an entire afternoon looking at a game that throws 20 flags.

I also think part of it is all the tv timeouts. It's brutal. The game starts and stops too damn much. They also need to get rid of the 2 minute warning. There really isn't any need to it at all. This will put a greater emphasis on saving time outs.

I use to love watching college football. Now I just don't even watch it that much anymore. Some of the games are nearly 4 hours long. All that stopping the clock on every first down is just ridiculous.

They absolutely cannot get rid of the 2 minute warning. It's a huge part of strategy (extra timeout), hence the 2 minute drill etc. What they should do is never go to a commercial after a kickoff. That would be an enormous help. Nobody wants to sit through a commercial after a score, watch a kick and touchback, then sit through another commercial.
