Obviously the debate didn't help - but that was just one game. I'm curious whether anyone else is watching less football this year. For me it's a culmination of things - the first being that Sunday, Monday, and Thursday night football is too many nights a week.
The rookie QBs, as well as no Brady, no Bell - along with underperformance by the Saints, Panthers, etc. - all have a lot to do with it.
Kaepernick? Not an issue for me, but I can see that being something that may drive some people away.
Thoughts?
