Offensive pass interference shouldn’t be a 15-yard penalty. It should be loss of down and 5 yards. I know the goal is for it to be the same penalty as the defense would suffer, but a 15-yards penalty inherently hurts the offense worse than the defense because 25+ yards to go in a set of downs is almost always insurmountable.


So question, we have automatic first downs for the offense, can we get automatic fourth downs for the defense?

Take away the low hit penalty on hitting the QB in the pocket


Should they take away the low hit penalty on punters and kickers?

Completely different circumstance. If you sack a QB but him below the knee it’s roughing the passer. If you hit the QB late anywhere it’s a penalty same with kicker/punter. I’m strictly referring to the low hit on the QB in the pocket. They have a target zone.

You can get a penalty for literally bumping into the punter.

People are okay with running into/roughing the kicker/punter penalties, but they hate roughing the passer calls. You want defensive players diving into QBs knees.

FGs over 60 yards are worth 4 points, at any level, HS, College, NFL.
Overtime is played as a continuation of the second half. If the 4th quarter clock expires in a tied game, OT begins at the point of interruption.
Start the season 6 weeks later, football in triple digit heat sucks!!
Go back to the Power 7 Conferences, Big 10, SEC,ACC, Big 8, SWC, Big East, and Pac 10.

You think stopping the game so a team can celebrate a non-scoring play will help the flow of the game?


He used terrible justification but he's merely saying go back to the way it was the previous 60 years.

They changed the rule in 2023 to shorten the game and add a full minute to the TV timeouts.

OL is not nearly as violent as it used to be. All of the zone blocking schemes are about creating angles and shielding players. It's no longer about dominating the man lined up in front of you by driving him off the line of scrimmage.

If the clock stops under 5 minutes in the 4th Q when you do that then make that the rule all game


Completely agree how they have allowed separate clock rules throughout the game is mind blowing!
