This year I agree. But what about next year?

It's the most watched sport in America and they have their pick of the best athletes, why would they change anything?

That's a fair comment and each to their own. I just find an average of 11 minutes of action across 3 hours particularly dull.

you change how you do things to gain an advantage, rules/how the accepted way to play in the NFL stifle open play. It's not that you couldn't pass the ball 'laterally' more often, it's that because you can block a potential recipient it's deemed very high risk. You could use it in a similar way to a short kick off early in a game of rugby league when it's least expected (as in not when you're behind) or say a kick from the scrum. Given the risk value unless it's a last play of the game then it just won't happen but that's why sports like rugby league are interesting because they can change and develop. Gridiron is massively regimented with rules that make even less logical sense than ours

The majority of the world find a glorified version of british bulldog dull, but that doesnt stop the likes of me and you loving rugby league., Everyone is different

As I said, each to their own. Regardless of what anyone thinks to the actual action of either game, for entertainment value they don't compare with one having 11 mins over 3 hours and the other 50+ Over 1.5 hours.
