Semi-OT: What is the most unwatchable type of football game?

[ctpatsfan77]

Set aside the question of which teams are playing.

What sort of game makes you think "Yuck, this isn't worth watching?"

 

[GaryfromTO]

any pre-season game

 

[Nunchucks]

Lots of penalties

 

[long distance]

j e t e ?

 

[Zuma]

Way to many penalties or when they are blatantly skewed to one side

 

[Tottie]

The bend don't break, zone defense type of football we had here for years before the second run of titles.

 

[farn]

38-6. Anything competitive is better.

 

[DropKickFlutie]

50 shotgun passing plays which look like flag football on TV.

 

[Tony2046]

Dan Fouts jibber jabbering nonsense throughout the entire game.

 

[LJRomanoff]

All passing, no defense, regular interruption of play due to pointless penalties. I.e., most NFL games in the last decade.

 

[Triumph]

A game in a snowstorm where neither team can move the ball.

 

[patman12]

Flag

I was in the market last week when I spotted some shrink wrapped ostrich meat. I despise that Liberty Mutual commercial so much I bought a couple of packs of this ostrich meat and grilled them up. Sucked...but the dog ate well. MY dream is Doug rolls up next to me in his car on a narrow mountain cliff roadway...when he opens his mouth I jerk the wheel hard to the right and run him right off the mountainside and down 5,000 feet to the jagged granite boulders below.As he plummets to his doom I'll yell out..I CAN'T SAVE YOU!

Unbalanced games. Too much offensive output and no defense to me is the worst (Rams vs. Chiefs 50 burgers), but all defense and no scoring is pretty boring, too. The recent Pats Rams SB was kind of that to me. For some reason I love the older SBs where score was somewhat low, though. So go figure.

To put it the opposite way, a game where teams are hovering around like 21 to 31 and close until the end are the best. Games that are all but decided by the half are also kinda boring.

 

[A Defiant Goose]

Very bad defense or very bad offense or very bad officiating basically. Any of the above is just bad football. A 42-42 game might sound fun but it most likely means both teams suck at defense

 

[Simpelton]

one sided curbstomps I'll watch just about anything as long as the outcome is in doubt.

 

[Simpelton]

The recent Pats Rams SB was kind of that to me.

I'll be honest, I loved that Superbowl. It was a grinding defensive game that came down to who made more mistakes, and it was the Rams.

Frankly, any NFL game that is draped in political correctness. Three years since I enjoyed an NFL game.

MNF has officially become unwatchable. The "A" team felt bored.

Al Michaels is the only iconic voice left in football.
