Are they really trying to have 7 on 7 in the Olympics!? If so please sign me up! #GoldMedalPursuit @TeamUSA @Olympics
Would be awesome, IMO.
Who would be your offense/defensive 7?

The court would be too crowded. Give me 3 on 3.

Who would they play against? This wouldn't be entertaining at all unless the US was allowed to have like 10 teams compete against each other

Well when he said Derek Carr tweeted it, you should be able to figure it out

I doubt it. No competition and surely the NFL teams wouldn't want their stars putting their bodies at risk for this.

Dumb idea. Will never happen.

You also need recovery time between games and the Olympics have a compressed time frame. You'd need 7-minute quarters.

I'd say make it like college OT rule. Start from the 25 yard line.

After the GOAT feeding him the football for a few years he will be.;-)

This might be competitive if we chose a random D3 school to represent us.

Might be to a set number, like 35 or something like that. I don't think a timed game would work for this.
In HS we did 7 ons with a set amount of possessions.
