re: Offenses evolved to score more points. Defenses haven't evolved to stop them.

Football is a better sport when the offense and defense are on an equal footing trying to overcome each other. It makes for a healthier, richer sport.
This is exactly how I feel. Look, I'm not gonna bitch and call for rule changes to help my favorite team win more. They can get em an Auburn or Oregon type offense if that's the route they wanna take. But dammit, I don't like this type of football as much.

And where the game is, right now, isn't that bad. I could easily live with it. I am however, a bit concerned with it moving forward over the next 30 years. I fear that we won't recognize the game in the future.

It's not like it took 20 years for all these rule changes to get us here. It's been fairly rapid. I wish the powers at be would at least address things. Figure out what we all want the game to be, and rule it accordingly. If all these rule changes are hurting the game, then address them. If they want to keep making rules based on player safety and more important epic offense, then, well, frick.
