The NFL season is off to a slow start with teams not scoring a lot of touchdowns while they load up on field goals. Teams are averaging just 21.4 points through two weeks, which is the lowest scoring has been since teams averaged 20.6 points per game in 2006.
One of the main reasons for that is the two-high safety defense that many teams are employing to limit deep passes by some of the strongest armed quarterbacks the sport has ever seen. This is really bothering some people, including ESPN's Mel Kiper Jr. who went on Get Up on Thursday and suggested that the defense was "ruining" the sport and "should be outlawed."
