NFL has always been driven by the 21-45 year old group. As someone mentioned, the game as that group knows it ,contains numerous delays due to replays, bad calls etc., and the ratings are at a 9 year high. It may be declining to some of the other age groups, for example, I only care to watch the Bills or if nothing else is going on one of the competitors for a playoff spot in the AFC. Which brings me to my next point..... The Sunday afternoon culture that is now ingrained in most of us through many generations plays an important role as well. Granpa, Dad, Older brother etc. down to sons and grandsons. It's like going to church. In Summary, combining the above with more and more betting, leads to continued profits for the league. I don't necessarily think that it leads to better product and more entertainment. It is what it is, nothing runs forever. But as a 60 year old man, i agree with alot of what the OP said, I don't find it as enjoyable. Is it because I've been there and seen it all a million times or because the product is not as fun for me? Probably a little of both. However, with all the changes we are experiencing as a society (technology, streaming etc.) don't be surprised if the NFL isn't on easy street forever. People only have so much free time and they want it to be entertaining or they will find something else to do.

People and their draft picks💤, we just got a Pro Bowl WR. An actual human being who can help us!!!!

He wants his #2, Bass?

I like that we have some nasty dudes up front who play on the edge.

If Aikman had been drafted by the Lions and not the Cowboys .......... I mean it's kind like him saying Josh should have some interceptions.

He such a d-bhag

Troy Aikman is a big douche, hates the Bills.

There actually were alot of guys who played well tonight.

Offense just got even slower

I have them 4th behind Chiefs,Ravens and Texans

Bills 8 Jets 5

Don McDermott will throw Beane under the bus if he needs to!

It was worth a shot on the Kincaid as the announcer stated

Can we please make Dawson KNox part of any package?

Nah, there has to be someone watching from a bar who could make better decisions

Facts! The Bills in last 4 seasons are 13-15 in one score games and 25-2 in others. The common denominator- McDermott No team presented with the same situation in the last 45 years has throw 3 straight passes inside the 5. We threw 3 straight low completion % passes and no driver starters or dump offs. We made these decisions on a day when we ran for 150 yards and Josh was 9 for 30 and harassed the whole game. Coaching malpractice yesterday-again. There are guys sitting on couches and on bar stools who make better decisions. We have Marty Schottenheimer as our coach. His style wins games during the season and gets you beat in playoffs.

He did? Not what I saw

I hope you nailed him good!!!

Bills-21 Ravens 13

Nice oppotunity to give the backups some experience.

one more series and then it's Trubisky time

Bills 17 Jags 13

It does seem like expecting teams to be able to go down the field slowly for 12 plays without making a mistake is a pretty good tactic right now. Some teams can do it a 2-3x times a games, others have trouble doing it once. There is also the added touch by defenses of really tightening up n the red zone and forcing FGAs. The athletes on the defenses are really able to cover a lot of the field and force penalties on the offensive line.

I keep hearing that teams are deploying more 2 deep coverages like the Bills. Offensively, teams seem to combat it by running more. These changes don't happen over night, but over the last few years we've gone down in scoring from almost 25ppg in 2020 trending straight to just over 21ppg. So far this season teams are only averaging 193 yards passing/game (lowest since 1992). And, combined with that, teams are averaging about 125 yards per game rushing, this would be the highest since 1987! I know it's only 2 weeks in and defenses may be ahead somewhat. Also, people have been talking about how little QBs have played in the preseason being a factor. However, as I mentioned things have been trending this way for awhile. What say you all? could the Bills be ahead of the curve in promoting this style of ball? Do you agree that the eyeball test seems to matchup with the niumbers?

Lotsa gold fish fans on here this week, you're not Bills fans that's for sure.
