NFL Broadcasts Should Stop Doing This – But They Won’t

The NFL is constantly trying to get better, but if they want people to enjoy the games more, they should stop doing this one thing.

There have been some notable changes to the way the game looks this year in the NFL.  The kicking game, for one, is completely different than anything we've seen in the game of football.  It really does appear as though they're constantly looking for new ways to keep the players safer and to make the fan experience better.  So why in the world are they still doing sideline interviews with coaches?

You know the interviews I'm talking about.  There's a sideline reporter and somewhere around the end of the 1st quarter or halftime they run up to the coach with a microphone and ask him something that he probably isn't going to answer.

They ask them things like how they feel their team is playing, or why they decided to do this or that.  The coach then replies with the most basic answer they can like, "we need to score more points than them" or " we need more effort out of our guys."

You never really learn anything from them at all!

Sadly though, it looks as though not only will they still be doing it, now they're going to be doing more of it this year.

This year, they're going to give them a chance to not only talk to the head coach, but also coordinators and even players before the game.

Why?  Why are they doing this?  Does anyone learn anything new from these interviews ever?
