GDT: Non-Panthers NFL Discussion part 3: Meet the new season, same as the old season?

[tarheelhockey]

Not only do the Cowboys play suck-ass football, they take forever to do it. It's nearly 7pm and we've still got five minutes to go in the third? As Lee Trevino used to say about slow play on the green "If you're going to miss it, miss it quick."

Football games in general are taking WAY too long. I attended a 4-hour college football game earlier this season, no overtime. 4 hours! That’s excruciating when you’re there in person, just sitting there watching incomplete pass after incomplete pass with reviews and commercial breaks in between.

Baseball figured this out and made painful but necessary changes. Football needs to do the same.
