All those empty seats for the Saints/Rams game is surprising.

That's no scrub game.

When you outscore your opponents 76-3 over your first two games, its hard to disagree with that statement.

Well be fair, they did play Miami yesterday. If you can't score at least 40 on them, you're not a very good football team. They may go down as the worst team in NFL history, at least the other two recent winless teams, the 2008 Lions and the 2017 Browns, were competitive in a lot of games.

The kneeling was bad enough but when the NFL threatened Texas when they were debating the keep the creeps out of the girls bathroom law that was it for me.

NFL priced themselves out of the market. Tickets and food prices are ridiculous. Now add parking, traffic.

Then add people - crime, homelessness, the fact you may have to walk to a transit station at dusk or at night.

Why?

They really did manage this into a cocked hat. Killed the golden goose.

At least he isn’t Kirk Cousins. What a horrible signing.

Lots of empty seats in Miami 10 minutes before kickoff. The people that are here are mostly Patriots fans

When the Dolphins front office has pretty much thrown in the towel for 2019 before week 2, what do you expect? If anything, this debacle is on Goodell and the bozos in the NFL office. In an era of alleged "parity", the AFC East has been anything but for about a decade. And the AFC West isn't too far behind at the moment.

It's hard to bet against the Patriots or Chiefs when they start every season 5-1 or 6-0, based on their intra-divisional games.

I was really surprised the Lions beat the Chargers, I expected the Chargers to battle for a Wild Card spot.

The Los Angeles area has not seemed to care about the NFL for decades now. Ask the Raiders how their years in LA went, and why they moved back to Oakland.

Were the Raiders going to Las Vegas Nevada? I heard that rumor somewhere once upon a time.

The Raiders are still the most popular team in LA, even though they left years ago.

Yes. NASCAR has done the same thing. When I lived in Maryland 2000 - 2012, I knew people who had gone to every race at Dover and Richmond for years. In about 2010 they stopped going because ticket prices had gotten too high.

With all of the disease in Los Angeles, people may be staying away out of fear of contracting typhus or some other medieval illness.

The Raiders begin playing in Las Vegas next year. I think the stadium is under construction now.

America consigns NFL to the dumpster.

*************

Many Americans have concluded that there are better things to do with their time than watching a bunch of ingrates, endless commercials and the politicization of a game.

Who would have ever dreamed that there would be empty seats at an NFL game just 10 minutes before kickoff?

Especially with one of the worst teams in NFL History.
