truth is most nfl games already suck unless you're a fan of one of the team's playing...

and there aren't enough good QBs to take advantage of the pro-offense rules...

tackling is for shit with the exception of a couple of defenses....the NFL has already peaked in terms of being a compelling event

pretty much the only thing they can do from here on out is screw it up more in the name of safety...

NFL would be crazy!!!

Yeah maybe I didn't think that all the way through. Still IMO it would suck. And if the game is tied late in the 4th qtr it's going to be harder for either team to win the game if they have to score a TD instead of kicking a FG and that could lead to a tie game. And don't forget about TV and time constraints.

That's just dumb. I can't believe these ****ers make all that money to come up with the most ridiculous shit ever.

If you want to get rid of kickoffs, just give the other team the ball on their twenty after a score.

Problem solved, now where is my ten million?

Too bad. It's clutch time in the 4th, it's supposed to be difficult.

Not to mention, it's not like the kicker is guaranteed to make a clutch field goal anyway (I know this full well), so....

A billion dollar buisness hiring jokes as refs over such a small amount of money should have been the last mistake he ever made.

yet they still get to troll out there on Sunday and **** up games...

They can't address totally subjective and game changing calls like Pass Interference with instant replay.

BUT BY GOD THEY CAN CHANGE KICKOFFS EVERY YEAR.

Yeah. he would've.

No, Scott Mitchell had some talent. The dude ran a badass pass-first offense for a few years.

He was just an injury prone choker.

Matt Cassel RAPED the Hunt family because the league changed the passing rules.

So true. And it did not used to be that way.

I would take the replacement refs back in a second over the likes of Hochuli and Leavy.

The replacement refs had a few blown calls. The regular refs are responsible for travesties such as Super Bowl XL and the Tuck Rule Game. 'Nuff said.

So with field goals it's still difficult.

Next up, Goodell makes field goals worth 10 points, and touchdowns 25.

for all the flash, there seems to be a generalized incompetence that is hard to explain...very few teams are good at more than one thing, most are average to bad at several...

Teams are not unique enough. Just a rotating band of mercenaries who don't actually care where they play or the organization they represent.

The constant focus on the individual and fantasy football has made the league shit.

Crennel thought he could beat Denver with Fg's... Take them away and he still wouldnt know what happened.

Could you imagine Marty and Herm without FG's... They would never score...
