The NFL sells games of indeterminate and highly variable broadcast length (just look at last Sunday, the early game took a lot longer than the late game because kept doing clock eating drives). I don’t expect to get more of anything getting rid of the PATS, it’s getting rid of the most boring play in sports, it could be replaced with a moment of silence and it would be more interesting.

Even if it just tucks in more commercials, which it really won’t since PATs are untimed downs and happen right before a commercial break already, so what. It’s the most boring play in sports, it serves no purpose, it almost never fails, it’s time has passed, time to wave bye bye.

The NFL has, in the past, made moves to cut the time of games because they aim for a 3 hour window.
