Detroit’s proposal to eliminate an automatic first down as a penalty imposed for defensive holding and illegal contact did not pass, despite the Lions’ pleas.
I don’t understand how this didn’t get unanimous approval…that rule fricking sucks

The rule I hate the most is half the distance to the goal on an offensive penalty. Just move the sticks forward an appropriate amount.

4 games with throwbacks too. Skins better be rocking the Skins jersey.

Saw this on my X feed earlier and I assumed it was an April Fool's joke because it would make too much sense for the NFL to actually implement it.

A high profile team is gonna lose because the other team got the 3rd possession after both teams score and then the complaint will be that it isn’t fair both teams don’t get the ball an equal amount of times.

Why does it suck?
Holding in the defensive backfield is pretty impossible to play through. I'd much rather address it for illegal contact.

100% will happen
Other team should have gone for 2. Tough shite

What if the team that gets the ball first goes on a drive of say, 9:57, and kicks the game winning FG or scores a TD as time expires, does the other team still get the ball?

This has been my argument about just playing defense in OT this whole time and I get yelled at every time, I’m just warning people the slippery slope ain’t gonna stop slipping

It's time for college to adopt the NFL model for kickoffs, let's bring the kick return back to the game

Touchbacks to the 35 yard line is INSANE
Brandon Aubrey is in FG range with 1 first down and a few more yards

Sudden death was exciting…. But I guess the NFL gets to serve people more ads and penalties now

10 minutes is dumb. Just do another 15 minute quarter. Muh player safety that 5 less minutes will be a difference maker when you have to turn around and play on Thursday night!
