I agree that the quality of play is down and I blame the QBs and some coaching. So much inconsistent play. Of course, more teams, more QBs. Making the conference finals every year is so dependent on having an all-pro QB.

Edit: Encouraging though to see Watson off to a good start as a rookie, though, for Houston. Had a good game vs. NE.

I've been in on Watson for years. Has the intangibles.

sure, it was a bad call.
Horrendously bad.
i mean, it certainly fits taunting
Oh please.
he reached out his hand to help Taylor up, and then pulled it away doing the "psych!" move. That's pretty harmless; its not like he teabagged him, but i expect any player to get called for taunting for something like that

I go back and watch old games fairly often and I don't see a huge difference, and if anything a lot of times things look faster and more precise nowadays. I'm also fairly certain that the current pool of active players contains a possible GOAT candidate at most positions.

If you mean things like replays, replacement refs, games early in the season being rough, I can see that, but again, I think it's somewhat overstated. My main beef is the commercials and they've already had to scale them way back.

PHILADELPHIA fans are the worst! ESPN or SI or someone did a survey years ago of all 4 major sports. Eagles, Phillies, 76ers, and Flyers were all in the top 10 for worst fans.
I don't think I'd be an Eagles fan at all if I was from out there.

Philly fans are the worst. I've experienced Eagles fans at Gillette and Flyers fans at the Garden in Boston.

Yeah, I know Boston and NY fans are terrible, too, but at least we have a sense of humor about the hate and most of it is playful. Philly is just garbage. Filthy people. Smelly, too. I think they throw batteries on the field a lot.

I've never seen a team get hosed the way the Falcons are getting hosed today.

There's shit refereeing and there's cheating.

It's cheating today. A free touchdown that wasn't and and interception return that wasn't.

If you were successful in your goal of avoiding Eagles fans...you chose wisely.
