If you could change an NFL rule, which one?

[Dead Money]

Last nites game officiating especially during the last 2 minutes was beyond atrocious, borderline criminal.

The Indy receiver was clearly in bounds with 30 seconds left in the game, yet they called him out, stopping the clock, awarding Indy time to get back in the game.

Chucky called the refs out and he quickly dropped the subject.


My rule change is simple.....EVERY reasonable football action is re-viewable at ANYTIME, under ANY circumstances....none of this NON-REVIEWABLE bull-shit.


Something needs to be done about these "Block in the back calls" on kick returns also.

Trying to think of one I used to hate :00x32

TD celebrations should be allowed individually or with your team. It's all in good fun. I don't see what the big deal is

Mine would be if the Offense is backed up in their own end, say at the 2 yard line.....Offensive Holdings is called, half the distance to the one then move the Down to Make marker 9 yards down field to penalize the full 10 yards.....:0008

Without a doubt it has to be the pass interference call

Its mostly subjective anyway so

Unintentional pi = 10 or 15 yard penalty (or spot foul in occuring ahorter than 10 or 15 yards)

Intentional pi = spot foul

Way to much bs yardage gained by ticky tack calls and/or vastly underthrown balls where the wr just can stop running and get hit by the db for a free 30-40-50 yard gain.

Secondarily......stop giving automatic 1st downs on 5 yard penalties when the yardage to gain for a 1st is 20 yards.

3rd and 20
Brees dumps off a screen to the rb for a gain of 4
Wait...
Holding defense by a db on the other side of the field
5 yard penalty and auto 1st down.....WHAT?

Overtime should be an extra 15 min quarter period!

No more 1st td wins shit.

If still tied after the 5th quarter, repeat above and so on...

Who wouldn't want to watch a 6 or 7 quarter nfl game, now that would be entertainment!!

And just think what it would do.to fantasy football.. and over/unders.

Just my thoughts.

Agree, everything should be re-viewable. The game has no integrity.

 

[kickserv]

NFL should do what Canadian Football League does....NO FAIR CATCH ALLOWED

Watching one dude punt the ball and then another dude catch the ball and ref blow whistle is so exciting

Oh and beyond stupid seeing almost every kick-off fly through the end-zone, man that is exciting
