Jason Whitlock: “The quality of play, particularly on the offense side of the NFL, has fallen drastically. Teams can’t score, not like they used to, and not in the rapid way NFL rule changes have been rigged to promote. Six weeks into the season the NFL seemed more boring and low scoring than usual. This past weekend only two NFL teams scored more than 26 points. Two weeks ago, six NFL teams failed to score a single touchdown. A quick perusal of stats showed that scoring and touchdowns were down, and field goals were up. // I want you to ponder my theory. The problem with the NFL is that the ‘main thing’ is no longer the ‘main thing.’ Roger Goodell’s league is mostly concerned with divvying the spoils of football. It's hyper focused on creating the appearance of ‘equality.’ People with no real affinity for football have been given voice over the direction of the league. This goes ways beyond pandering to Taylor Swift fans, this is about transgender cheerleaders, female football coaches, female football players, gay players, female executives, female referees, ‘Black Lives Matter’, Black head coaches, media criticism of players, breast cancer awareness, LGBTQ pride, rappers attending games and performing at halftime, safety concerns, Donald Trump resistance, COVID vaccinations, and whatever else Big Pharma and the World Economic Forum prioritizes. The people running the NFL don't care about football. They don't care about the actual game, the product on the field. That indifference is why the product on the field is the worst it's ever been. ‘Diversity, Equity and Inclusion’ are the enemies of merit. Football rose to prominence as a symbol of the ultimate meritocracy. It symbolizes the freedom, courage, ruggedness, and innovation of the men who made America great. Not anymore. Football is a platform for special interest groups. Groups with no love for football's founders or what it used to represent. The NFL is America. The same forces and initiatives tearing down America are undermining football. Everyone can see it. Most people with a large platform talk around the issue. They don't want to get kicked off the NFL gravy terrain. // The hyper concern about safety has caused the league to reduce practice time in the number of padded practices. The lack of practice has diminished the quality of play. They don't want to work, they don't want to practice, it's that simple. You go to an NFL training camp and it's like an old Wendy's commercial -- ‘Where’s the Beef?’ Where's the work being done? You can't innovate if you don't practice. You can't add new offensive wrinkles if practice time is limited. It's much harder to develop a quarterback in this new era. The concern over safety and the mega player contracts have changed the way the game is played. Every NFL player has a little Franco Harris in them, they all dip out of bounds or slide to the ground before contact. On a scramble, quarterbacks routinely sacrifice two or three yards to slide before getting hit. NFL officiating is sloppy and uneven. No one should be surprised. The league is far more concerned with what the referees look like rather than the individual performance of each official. In 2020, during the ‘Saint George Floyd’ national holiday months, the NFL bragged about fielding an all-Black referee crew. The NFL keeps putting women in a microwave training program and elevating them to sideline judges. The NFL is just like America. The league is overrun with people who don't love the game or know its history. Roger Goodell is in charge of the NFL's Southern border. He's allowed the ‘alphabet mafia’, Marxists, and feminists to radically change the focus of the league. ‘Merit’ has been eliminated. Once you remove merit, everything suffers. Smash and grabs become common place. Why not? Goodell just received a new $70 million a year contract for being the worst commissioner in sports. He's a high-priced looter. Why shouldn't the BLM and LGBTQ alphabet mafia loot the NFL? Politicians and global elites have looted American taxpayers since 1913. They've been systematically stealing our money since the inception of the Federal Reserve, and they've been stealing our freedom for 60 years. Freedom and merit used to be the main things in America, now it's pronouns and safety. It's a woman's world.” (Full Segment Above)
