Plenty of reasons for record-setting scoring pace in NFL
Read full article: Plenty of reasons for record-setting scoring pace in NFLWhether it was the virtual offseason that hampered defensive development, a lack of screaming fans to hinder road teams, rules changes that always seem to favor the offense or coaches willing to be more aggressive, NFL clubs are scoring at a record-setting pace in 2020.
