Close. Momentum=mass times velocity. Your point is a good one. I think the mass is more important than velocity for the repetitive collisions that linemen experience though.

The idea is more about making the game better. If everyone always played like Oregon, people would laugh at the idea of huddling between plays.

Do the same thing with baseball. 10 second clock between pitches, 20 second clock between batters.

And get rid of the warmup games of catch between half innings.

I like the idea. Someone needs to start flying a banner over NFL stadiums, "NO MORE HUDDLES!"

For all the shit the XFL tried, this would have been interesting.

I was originally going to type the force equation, then changed to momentum w/o the appropriate edit. This is why I was shitty at physics.

One XFL idea I liked was paying players to win games. I don't remember exactly how it worked, but I think there was a pot of money riding on each game and the winning team got to split it.

The NFL has a bonus system in place for players who outperform their contracts. It's called performance-based bonuses. Burfict made almost 300K extra last year.

I understand that teams are allowed to include performance incentives in contracts now. I'd like to see it built into the system and be team oriented. Playoff shares are fine, but I'm talking about the regular season. Playoff shares pay for additional work based on each game they play. I want a portion of the player's normal non-playoff pay to come from each game they win.

You obviously don't understand.
It's not a performance incentive in the contract. It's doled out from the league as a part of the CBA: Players have been paid nearly $700 million cumulatively since the inception of the Performance-Based Pay program, which was implemented as part of the NFL's 2002 Collective Bargaining Agreement with the NFL Players Association.
