I've never thought college football has a problem with that rule. The DBs aren't going wild with PI. And if they were, I'm assuming the NCAA would change that rule by now. |

Also recovery speed, if a WR is 4 yards ahead of a CB 40 yards downfield and he sees dudes hands go up he'd just tackle him 15 is better than 50. |

It might create too much gray area, but I’d almost like to see something where an underthrown ball equals 15 yards and a good throw is a spot foul. That’s the one that annoys me. A bad throw brings the receiver back through the DB and results in a spot foul.

The ****ing tush push needs to go, this isn't rugby. ![]() I think the overtime rules are just fine, leave them alone. |

Can't just tackle a dude 40 yards downfield because you're toast, and only give up 15 for it. Defensive holding should be tweaked somehow, it's really terrible to have like 2nd and 20 or 3rd and 25 just get instantly negated by a 5 yard auto first down.

DPI being a 15 yarder also makes sense. Yes to all three.

I’m open to all of these. Wouldn’t care if none pass at the same time.
In general, I think the tush push makes for a less enjoyable product on the field. It’s a bit more painful for the average C, Gs and DTs than your typical play, which might invite a greater injury risk. It’s also just very muddy. Did they get the first down? Didn’t they? Who the **** knows! Can’t see shit with 3,000 pounds of man meat all smushed together. I’ve long hated the auto 1st down for defensive holding and illegal contact. I’m not sure making it a simple 5 or 10 yard penalty is a better solution so I’ll wait to see how that goes.. Extra regular season means bonus football so I wouldn’t hate it but I do like the current system during the regular season. It emphasizes that football is a team sport, which includes defense. If your team gives up a TD on the first drive of OT, they simply didn’t deserve the win. That’s just the way she goes. |

Yes to all 3.
It's infuriating when you have a 3rd and long or 4th and long and a defensive holding gives an auto 1st down. Make it equal to an offensive hold - 10 yards.

If you made the penalty 10 yards I would be okay with no automatic first down. If I’m they removed the first down and keeping the yardage to 5, you’d see a lot more grabbing and less offense. I don’t love the trends of of the last few years that suppress passing and emphasize a rushing attack.

I agree with the Lions. Tired of every 5 yard penalty (besides offsides) resulting in an automatic first down.
