Welcome to 2014 -- A New Era of the NFL

Tomorrow night the season opens.

And at the same time it opens a new era in the NFL. An era that the league wants to avoid. It could be an era of...defense.

The Seattle Seahawks face off against the Green Bay Packers tomorrow night, in Seattle. As tradition has it, Seattle will probably win the game (with the exception of the 2012 Giants and the 2013 Ravens, every Super Bowl winning team in the last 10 years has won their opener). But if they do, it will begin to usher in a new period of the NFL. A period of equally vocal defense, with a quiet quarterback. Basically the opposite of what the league desires. The league, as they have demonstrated with recent rule and Pro Bowl changes, wants to encourage the high flying offenses, like the one seen in Green Bay. They want high scoring games, rather than a low scoring defensive struggle.

Richard Sherman is their worst nightmare.

He is well spoken, well educated and more than anything, a poster child for this new NFL. The legion of boom. There is nothing the league can do about it, but the whole country will be watching tomorrow. And it isn't to see Aaron Rogers (unless you're from Green Bay). It's to watch the show that is Richard Sherman and the Seattle defense.
