Having 22 guys in an area the width of a goal post would be a huge cluster****.

Flying wedge. It would be a great homage to the roots of the sport. And it would make Dontari Poe a superstar.

It should be shaped like a meatball. There could be Spaghetti shaped tunnels that connect the meatballs. That would add a bit of randomness to the game.

I like that. It would be like adding a maze to the field in some respects. I think a maze would be a wonderful addition, and you could still shape it like a football.

I love the corner post cant do it on a football shaped field. Also never mess with perfection! Perfection is Chiefs logo and uniforms and football on a rectangular field. |

I like it, It's an interesting concept with several kinks that would need to be worked out.
However, the NFL would never let this fly. It'll cut down the amount of big plays. People who don't care about football want to see big plays. The NFL cares more about the people who don't care about football than the actual fans. For example, the average demographic of an NFL fan isn't clamoring to see Britney Spears or Justin Timberlake as a half time show for the SB. They're put there to attract the people who don't care about football. IMO - Pass interference calls have ruined the game. If you're football shaped field includes the same rules we have now the game will continue to be suspect. |
