Bring back the old defensive rules and get rid of the salary cap. Also stop with all the leftist political BS!

Let the fans know how the league is coming with Equality and Racism fight?

Equality = they make more money than 99% of the fans that PAY to watch these dudes. Equality?, these frickers have no idea what they have are fighting for.

Racism= the league employs nearly 60% black, so the racism would be towards whites huh? ??

What makes you think the NFL needs fixing? This isn’t like the NBA. NFL is still putting out a good product and make truckloads of money with high viewership


We said that about basketball and baseball until they didn’t.

thursday games need to go adding that

Thursday games will be fixed if you add the 18th game, 2 bye week schedule and start them week 3-4, where each team playing is coming out of a bye week, so they have over a week to prepare for them.

The suggestions in the op would definitely make it better


Changing the mascots of two teams back to their original will have zero effect on product on the field.

Reverting back to 16 games will lead to less games for fans to watch.

Reverting back to only Sunday and Monday night games will also lead to less games for fans to watch.

None of the options will help the product on the field. Instead it will lead to less viewership, less contracts, and therefore less money for the NFL and all the players

rid of automatic first downs


I’ve been saying this for years. Such a dumb rule.

3rd and 10, o line gets called for a hold, and it goes to 3rd and 20.

3rd and 20, defensive back gets called for a hold and it’s 5 yards and an automatic first. Makes absolutely no sense

Full time refs in their prime with stiff penalties for bad calls. Tired of seeing these geezers stumble around looking for Mahomes to throw a roughing the passer penalty.

Change offensive line and defensive holding rules.

Eliminate calls away from the ball that have no affect on the play.

ETA - Go back to 16 game schedule. Put Thursday night games out of their misery.

Get rid of every player safety rule enacted since 2000. There are no "defenseless" players. Outlaw legalized intentional grounding. Fire Goodell. Get rid of all social virtue signaling.

Agree on Skins/Oilers/schedule.

55+ yds fg should be 4 pts.


Been saying this for years.

FG over 55 yards = 4 points
FG over 60 yards = 5 points

That would fill the gap for scoring points......1-6

Get rid of the refs

Use an Elon Musk created AI to call penalties. No calls allowed in the AI program for things that don’t impact the play.

NFL staff on the field for ball maintenance and placement. A security team to prevent and break up fights. The AI quickly factors in who provoked a fight.

All games have the same number of cameras to feed the AI data.
