    Turnovers and penalties. They usually don't even out and can change the whole game.

      If it was predictable you wouldn't find any books that would offer lines.

        Sponsey it's unpredictable for two reason
        1)The Shield and the networks wanted parody.Parody is good for the bottom line
        2)The are no rivalries any more because the players move during free agency and don't want to make enemies as directed by their agents
        1) scary movie is a parody. Parity is when things are equal

          NFL isnt as unpredictable as JJ is making it out to be.

          You have to know when good plays are there, and when you need to lay off.

            I believe these jackasses cut their training camp by a month and they're playing like a bunch of queers.
            These players are highly unpracticed, and unconditioned and that's why we have crap games.

            Most of these NFL teams look like they're still in Week 1, developmentally.

            These teams will probably click in December, but DAMN! We're gonna have to endure some garbage-like football until then.

            Go ahead and watch Tenny and J-Ville tonight and this is what I'm talking about: the linemen are gonna play patty cake, these QB'a are gonna mess up their timing with their receivers, Chris Johnson might break one, but it won't be because he's juking guys out or anything, that's because their will be poor as hell tackling.
            Just my humble opinion.

                  Haha I actually like this. It also seems to be, especially after watching intense college football rivalries on Saturday's games, that the NFL players just don't give it their all anymore like they used to. Maybe cause they figure, well we've hit our pay days and there is no higher level to attain. So let's just go on our talent skills but not give it 100%. Who knows.....but I do agree with this statement. The quality of play is getting a bit shoddy.

                    I'm on board with NYSports Guy. I took a loss on college, Saturday, and a profit on NFL Sunday With that said, I still enjoyed College ball better than the NFL, this weekend.

                    I'll give you some examples:
                    Did you see Wiscy play some hard core, in between the tackles, smash mouth football- It was friggin sweet!!!
                    Then, Brandon Jacobs doesn't want to lower his shoulder when running in the trenches against the Detroit Lions, yesterday.

                    I watched Michigan State and Illinois play and that was cool because they beat the hell out of each other until the Illini finally got over matched. But that game was a brawl and a chess match.
                    Then Frisco and the Raiders play yesterday and couldn't connect with backs in the flat. These are pro quarterbacks and they can't do that!!! How is Alex Smith and Jason Campbell still employed!!!

                      You're absolutely right about the players doggin it in training camp. Then there's also the fact that NFL defenses are a lot better because unlike in high school and college where most guys play defense because they're not skilled enough to play offense, guys in the NFL specialize in defense. There's less busted coverage and missed tackles. And of course, the severe shortage of franchise QBs. The proliferation of spread offenses in college has made it hard to find prospects with proper throwing mechanics and deep ball accuracy.

                      As far as injuries and concussions, that's mainly because the League lets the Steelers get away with dirty hits all the time.

                            It is difficult because smarter people with better skills and intel make decisions before you do, also even the worst teams are filled with professionals.
