What they need to change is the hands-in-the-face rule. If there's no contact, there's no interference even if the DB's back is turned.


The face guarding rule? I thought they did get rid of that last year.

I think the rule is the ball is down where he begins his slide. They just need to better enforce this.


I thought about that too but I think it'll be too tough to judge sometimes when a QB actually begins his slide and where the ball is


5) Use instant replay like the college game. No need for red flags

Roughing the passer needs to be adjusted a bit. They should either remove or adjust the hands to the head portion. How many times have you seen a rusher barely graze his fingers across the helmet and the flag come out. This is a huge penalty since it is 15 yards and a automatic first down. They should either make a 5 yard and 15/1st version or make the hands to the helmet more of a commons sense judgment call. I don't think the defenders should be able to club the helmet but they shouldn't get called for finger tips either.
