Eliminating the Kneeldown
We all know that the quarterback kneeldown to end a game is one of the most boring plays in the world. It's designed so that nothing can happen. Personally, I thank Romeo Crennel for completely eliminating it from our playbook, but I'm getting tired of seeing our opponents constantly calling this play.
So I have an idea to eliminate it. How's this? In the last two minutes of the game, the clock doesn't move on any play that doesn't gain yardage while the offensive team has the lead. Tie game? No effect. Trailing team has the ball? No effect. But a team that's leading has to be making positive progress. Otherwise, the clock is reset to its previous time after the play. |
