While I agree that there are rules that need tweaking, most of your proposals just make no sense.

1. Totally agree. Thursday night football is just wrong. Keep the 2 (or 3 for hardcore folks) games on Thanksgiving and move along.
2. Nope. Takes the decision out of the coach's hands.
3. Ahhhh-NO! Seriously, that happens maybe once or twice a game (on average), so let's not tinker with such a small item.
4. Well placed timeouts are part of the overall strategy. I'd support getting rid of the change of possession TV timeouts, but you're fooling with the NFL's most prized possession, money. More commercials, more bucks.
5. While we have some Emmy-winning actors in the NFL (Brady), the vast majority of those roughing calls are justified.
6. The intentional grounding penalty is just fine. Checkdown passes are part of the game. They all don't have to be 30 yard bombs. Many 3 and 4 yard gainers contribute to the overall success of the team.
