NFL, unlike MLB, has found sweet spot on action

The game Sunday night wasn’t my idea of great NFL football. The defenses were just too inept to call it a classic.

But it was fun and full of action, which is what this NFL season is dishing up. And not by accident.

No compatible source was found for this media.

The glut of first downs and touchdowns for a national audience served further notice that NFL owners and coaches are giving the public what it wants — touchdowns, touchdowns and more touchdowns.

Yet older San Diegans can vouch that the 83-point event wasn’t anything new under the football moon.
