Chiefs What if QBs had to call their own roughing the passers? - Page 3

I'm just having fun with this idea, don't take it too seriously. But how would it affect the game?

Was playing some pickup basketball yesterday and had this idea inspired by it. Obviously in pickup we call our own fouls, and you do it when you feel it's egregious enough to merit getting the ball back. You try not to do it too much, because you're going to piss everyone off, and you try to avoid calling it when it's ticky tack, because we're just trying to have a good time.

A few idiots in a basketball gym is not the same as millionaires playing for their livelihoods, but we do know that QBs need to have the respect of their locker rooms, and of course if you're a gigantic crybaby you're going to risk being an appealing $$$ brand. So perhaps that would have enough of a check on any impulse to call RTP any time they incomplete a pass. (Of course there would have to be a requirement that he have to get hit to the ground or something. I'm not a legislator.)

Maybe the "eye in the sky" can negate RTP from being called in the last two minutes of the game, and therefore leave that up to referees. I don't know.

Trying my best not to dog pile here but....damn dude. It's not even remotely feasible. No idea why'd you even suggest it be something worth even thinking about.

What if thieves could just steal money? I think they would police themselves because honor among thieves.
