Excuse my ignorance because I don't watch the NFL, but why are the hashmarks in the NFL narrower than in college? Shouldn't it be the other way around?


It makes it harder on the offense.

Think about high school hash marks. They are even wider than college. It gives the offense more room on one side to design a play.

At the pro level the hash marks being in tight let's the defense remain in a more balanced formation

I say give one point for anything up to 30 yards. Two points 30-45, three from 45-60 and 4 points for 60 plus.
awesome. So your plan is to penalize teams for advancing the ball. That's brilliant.

It's been the same way forever
the goal posts were still on the goal line in the 70s.
