Pop. It's easier to win in the NFL with one of the top 5/6 QBs.

But NFL titles are harder to get. Both have 5 titles.

The NFL is more competitive and football is 10 times harder to coach than basketball

@jollufuxer: We'll agree to disagree. I think going through 4 7 game series is much harder than winning two home playoff games to get to a SB.

I'm biased because I think the NFL sucks in general. It's so skewed to the passing game that I think all but 6 or so teams are practically eliminated before the season starts.

@HoraceGreenley: 10x harder to coach? Um, no. 😒

@luckranger71: It's the same with basketball. What teams besides the cavs, Celtics, spurs, or warriors have a chance?
HoraceGreenley · 61-69, M
@luckranger71: oh yes
aaaapapapa · 22-25, F
@HoraceGreenley: I agree it is harder to coach.

@jollufuxer: Rockets, Clippers on the outside. You also have to beat them 4 times in a series to advance. 82 games in Hoops is more of a grind than 16 in FB.

@HoraceGreenley: 10x? Please. You are ignorant of what basketball coaches do.
HoraceGreenley · 61-69, M
@jollufuxer: no comparison
aaaapapapa · 22-25, F
@luckranger71: That's true but clippers and rockets have a 0 chance. Maybe if they could get pop they would. But with doc rivers unf the clippers cant do shit. Plus cp3 isn't coming back will and jj reddick decided he's not gonna shoot anymore 3s. I'm a clippers fan but it's not gonna happen.

@jollufuxer: All true, but even less in the NFL: Pats, Falcons, Pack, Cowboys and ... no one else has a realistic chance.

Yeah, it's really difficult to be Mike McCarthy: ignore defense and the running game, tell Aaron Rodgers to throw all the time and watch him complete most and get pass interference calls on the rest. Until the SB this year, the playoffs were awful football.

@luckranger71: Seahawks pats game was good. There were some other good ones too.
luckranger71 · 51-55, M
You meant the Seahawks/Pats SB? Yes, but a few years ago. NBA playoffs and especially March Madness is so much superior TV to the NFL or college FB playoffs imo
aaaapapapa · 22-25, F
@luckranger71: no I meant the playoff game where they beat the pats. And I agree with you 100% but I still think it's harder to coach football.
luckranger71 · 51-55, M
@jollufuxer: It may be, if you don't have a great QB. But it sure as hell isn't 10x harder.
aaaapapapa · 22-25, F
@luckranger71: I think he was exaggerating there. It's not 10x as hard but it is harder. And one can make the case that pop has Leonard who is one of the best players and a contender for MVP.
