Scoring is down in the NFL this season, but league officials say they are not concerned

NFL teams aren’t scoring as many points as they did last year, but league officials don’t see a problem.
This season NFL teams are averaging 21.6 points per game so far in the 2022 season. That’s down from 23.0 in 2021 -- and that was down from 24.8 in 2020.
But Judy Battista reported on NFL Network from the owners’ meeting that the league is not concerned. According to the report, if scoring were to stay down all season long it might be looked at it in the offseason, but right now the league thinks it’s a blip.
Still, there’s little doubt that the league prefers higher-scoring games because fans would rather watch higher-scoring games. Every year when scoring is up, the NFL sends out press releases touting the high-scoring games.
When fans complain about bad football, they’re complaining about low-scoring games like Commanders 12, Bears 7 and Colts 12, Broncos 9. The NFL ought to be concerned if those games become the norm.
#HelmetHornsMatter
“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.
“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
