Agree 100%....
I played FB in college (small school) and the level of FB we played seemed much better (fundamentally - albeit with without the athletic prowess) than what is on for most NFL weeks.
I will say I still enjoy going to NFL games. Watching in person is so much better than the limited view we are exposed on TV. I took my son to watch Steelers vs Packers this year in Pittsburgh ... TJ Watt is simply an unnatural athlete. He can be rushing the QB on one side double teamed - shrug off the blocks - then chase the QB down on the OTHER SIDE of the field on a QB scramble in about the span of about 5 seconds. Or you can see an ILB that weighs 240 cover a speedy slot receiver on pass coverage for 15 yards on a pass play. It's truly amazing the speed at which these athletes play.
However, as mentioned above, the offense and QB play for a multi-billion $$ industry is dreadful. Throw in all the Prima Donna BS for simply catching a ball or making a play of no major consequence simply is over the top. Then add the TV timeouts / poor officiating / marketing - its gotten pretty bad.
