The NFL should get rid of cheerleaders entirely

The NFL should eliminate cheerleaders completely - they’re an outdated relic that serves no real purpose in modern football. The game itself is entertaining enough without needing scantily clad dancers on the sidelines, and the whole concept feels increasingly tone-deaf in today’s world. Most fans aren’t even paying attention to cheerleaders during games, and the money spent on these programs could be better used for community outreach or youth football development. #NFL #NFLUnpopularOpinion

The NFL should get rid of the sideline reporters who stop coaches just before or after halftime and following games to ask the most foolish questions!

The NFL has gotten ridiculous. Players are grossly overpaid, the Super Bowl has become a platform for advertising and who the halftime entertainment is. The cheerleaders are the most entertaining part now.

There's always some hysterical group that wants to tear down tradition. Don't like cheerleaders, don't watch.

How are they affecting you, the game, or fans? They are paid by the NFL OWNERS, not fans. If you don't like them, IGNORE THEM, and just watch the game. They are PAID EMPLOYEES DOING THEIR JOB. Don't be a Karen.
