NFL Will Remain Popular As Long As There Are World-Class Athletes, Gambling

The NFL playoffs have it all.

There are record-setting quarterbacks in Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees and Tom Brady. There are last-minute touchdowns from Alex Smith to Vernon Davis. There are dominating defensive displays like the one the Patriots put together against the Broncos.

Even without all those things, however, as long as there is a betting line, some fans will never go away.
