I'm not a football fan at all except for exceptional situations.
In the Doug Flutie era [early 1980s] I watched lots of Boston College football.
In the two decade Tom Brady era, I watched all of the Patriots games.
Those were very special, though.
Otherwise, I avoid football because it looks like quadriplegia waiting to happen.
I grew up in the much safer sport of boxing. We only got our brains scrambled and our retinas detached. Wholesome fun.
