Those 18 minutes are reasonably loaded with action, seeing well over 100 plays in total."So for 18 minutes a game, players are "in action".  Divide that by 2, since there are no 2 way players anymore and that is an average of 9 minutes of game time a starter and 50 plays (if in on every play), that an NFL potentially plays each game.Injuries?  Yup, those are there for sure.  Grueling season?  Grueling off-season and pre-season practices?  Not in my mind.  I think players, coaches, media, etc. would like everyone to think that playing in the NFL is a "long and grueling" job, but for what they are paid, sign me up.  <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" data-shortname=":)" />[URL unfurl="true"]https://www.profootballnetwork.com/how-long-is-a-football-game-breaking-down-the-time-between-the-first-and-last-whistle/[/URL]</blockquote>
