    But as of right now those numbers are special. That's why there has been such a backlash on MLB steroid users. The NFL is a different animal in regards to the steroid use because people want to see huge guys smash the **** out of each other.

    But as far as setting records every year, if the TD pass record is getting broken every three years no one will care eventually. Oh, Aaron Rogers broke Drew Brees' record that was Peyton Manning's two years ago? Sweet.

    Adrian Peterson breaking Eric Dickerson's 2100 rush yards? Yeah, that's damn impressive because it's stood for 20 years.

    The first 2000-yard receiving season? Damn impressive. Five guys doing it a year? Nah.

    I love the old ways>>>> But Get rid of the ref's . I think they call games , so the bigger teams have the advantage or Vegas is making the call's?
    Put cameras everywhere and let 3 people in the booth make the calls ,so ALL can see what they are seeing!!!
    Last few years way to many ? Questionable calls! Instant replay would be faster to ,if done right!! Stop the lies / cheating!

    One thing I would like to see changed is all of the TV timeouts around scores. I understand that the NFL makes its money by advertising, but what I would like to see happen is for the halftime/break between quarters to be lengthened and put the commercials their instead of stopping the flow of the game under the current system. The current halftime is so short that you can hardly wait in line to go piss and get something from the concession stands without missing part of the game. Also if you are trying to meet up and talk with friends at halftime forget about it because their isn't enough time.

    Keep the flow of the game going and give us longer stoppages between quarters/halfs.

    Adjustments...what I want...like I said, I know very few would go along with this, is season long suspensions for PED/ROIDS and huge fines for the teams. That would solve it. Also, regular unannounced testing...not this bs where they know ahead of time it is coming.

    I would say allowing DBs to actually defend Receivers. The offenses have too much of an advantage with the way the game is being forced to be played by defenders, and I am not talking about head hunting. Not only that, but coaches are very aware that a yellow flag will be thrown so easily, and I believe call plays that are just for the flag. Let them play!

    Stop letting teams that go 8-8 and win their division get higher seeds in the playoffs than a teams with a 13-3 record who happened to be in the same division as a team that went 14-2. Start doing it like the NBA.

    I prefer the division winner to have the home game. It amplifies the importance of the division games.

    Bit of a damn if you do, damned if you don't.

    It's a bit embarrassing if you're 11 - 5 but miss out on the playoffs to a 7-9 team (which is embarrassing in itself). But like you said, importance of the divisional games.
