The start of the 2025 NFL season raises a familiar debate among fans: are we witnessing balanced football or simply a league losing quality?One thing is certain: emotions are running high. After five weeks, the NFL has set a new record with 24 games where the winning point was scored in the last two minutes of regulation time or in overtime – the first time in league history that this stage of the season has been reached.This level of constant suspense captivates fans, who remain glued to their screens until the very last game. Spectacular comebacks, dramatic endings, and a sense that nothing is ever decided until the final whistle: that's the signature of this season so far.Last week alone saw seven dramatic victories. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, specialists in breathless finishes, achieved this feat for the fourth time this year.
Even more impressive, six teams overcame a deficit of at least 10 points to win, and four of them were trailing by 14 points or more at one point in the game.An unpredictable league that keeps fans on their toesFor some observers, this trend reflects a welcome parity, proof that each team has a real chance of winning.For others, it reflects an uneven level of play and teams unable to protect a lead. Whatever the interpretation, the NFL has succeeded in making every Sunday unpredictable – and that's precisely what makes it so popular with the public.With such intensity in the opening weeks, the rest of the season promises to be just as electrifying.This content was created with the help of AI.
