I would like to see the NFL get rid of field goals and extra points. Force the teams to go for 2 points. **** losing a game to a kicker.

So you would like more timeouts/stoppages/pre snap whistles, more ticky tack roughing the passer penalties, more QB taking a couple steps and throwing it away and less 2 point attempts? Whatever floats your boat

Not more timeouts, but 3 is perfect. Especially with end of the game play. What's more exciting then knowing you have Patrick Mahomes and 1:30 seconds to score a game winning TD or drive down for a game winning kick.

I agree, I just think there is enough stoppages of play. You already have free timeouts anytime there is a review or a penalty. Also spikes are allowed. I'm showing my age here but I remember when the QB had to throw it in the direction of a WR to stop the clock

6 timeouts was probably the right amount back in the day, but it was a totally different game. The games moved along a lot faster. Teams ran the ball much more. I think Starr and Dawson had about 50 passes between them in SB1. The great Pittsburgh and Miami teams had 2 1000 yd rushers. QB's didn't have a radio to the coach in their helmet and huge playsheet/wristbands on their nonthrowing hand. Teams didn't run the hurry up until it was desperation time. No stoppages for instant replay. Just a totally different game now.

Here's an actual good idea, Defensive Holding is no longer a god damn automatic 1st down. Actually I think DPI and facemask are the only penalties that should result in an automatic 1st down.

On one hand, I think fewer timeouts would really hurt the last two minutes of a game... OTOH, the last two minutes of a game has gotten pretty damn insane in recent years. And not just :13, but with certain QBs you know a team is going to get in FG range with a minute left or only 30 seconds left.... if not go down and score "too quickly" because the other team can score in 20 seconds. For Mahomes specifically, we thought the 2018 AFCCG was impressive before he on-upped that one.
So, I could actually see that one, except it would give the Mahomeses of the world even more of an advantage.... it doesn't water down the product, which is the NFL's main goal.

Anyone who whines about the NFL being rigged should be banned from watching the NFL. And definitely banned from posting about it.

6. Intentional grounding. Rarely called because if the QB takes 2 or 3 steps to the left or right grounding the ball is legal. Just get rid of the penalty for intentional grounding but any pass that doesn't get to the line of scrimmage is a live ball. Would be very exciting and would stop all these check down Charlie QB's from boring us to death with their dink and dunk
If every ball was live that didn’t make it to the line that would take spiking the ball to stop the clock out of the game. I actually enjoy that suspense |
