The horse collar penalty is the dumbest rule in all sports.

Get rid of targeting completely. Call it helmet to helmet like it used to be. 15 yard penalty, no ejection.

 

[Mack In Motion]

Get rid of targeting completely. Call it helmet to helmet like it used to be. 15 yard penalty, no ejection.

The immediate ejection on this call is probably the stupidest call in all of sports. A targeting call should be reviewed by the league office the following week for a possible suspension.

thick mittens for ol. only one mit for center. none for long snapper.
no kcikout for head to head unless hitter gets up and does pow wow dance over hittee

No blind-side hit calls. Kenny Bell approves this change.

 

[schuele]

I would like to see a 5-yard option for bumping into a punt returner who's called for a fair catch. Punt returners often signal for a fair catch very late and while on the move. When they get brushed by a defender, a 15-yard penalty is way too harsh. Makes no sense for the penalty to be the same as when you take the guy's head off.

Agree with most. Holding should be anytime your hands leave the frame

 

[Baxter48]

Pass interferences there should be no contact by either the dB or receiver. Was block in the back legal years ago? I thought on punt and kick off returns that it was allowed except below the waist and that was clipping? Anyone feel free to correct me on that one.

I would like to see that If the rugby style punter Takes more than a yards sideways steps is fair game you can Treat them like any other ball carrier

Sliding -- QB should only be protected behind the line of scrimmage. If they want to run, they are a runningback.

I do like the rule where you're down from the start of the slide. You shouldn't be rewarded for sliding.

No soccer flopping. 2 flops in a series, and you start losing time outs...or the offending coach has to give the opposing coach a free kick in the nuts at midfield.

 

[HuskerOH]

I've seen ugly career ending injuries from horse collar tackling. This must stay

 

[HuskerOH]

No holding, no pass interference.

There is no holding football today. I'm sick of watching tackles hook pass rushers with their arms around the neck and no call. Watching D lineman getting tackled, no call. For DPI, all it takes is an underthrown ball and there is laundry all over the field. If I were coaching, I would tell the QB to throw ball 5 yds short on every deep out to get the call. If the ball is underthrown, too bad. Everything is geared towards the offense today and putting 60 on the board.

Offense face masking might already be a penalty but it’s never enforced

You could not block anyone in the back it was a 15 yard penalty like it is today..

 

[scarletred]

This one is one of my pet peeves.. Running backs constantly grab defensive players face mask and is rarely called..

any injury stoppage of play - injured player must sit out the remainder of the series or the next 5 plays - which ever is the greater of the 2

Russell Wilson would have to quit football.

 

[huskerhooligansdotcom]

Enforce the “uncatchable” aspect of pass interference. If they weren’t going to catch it... don’t call it. It’s ridiculous. I would bring back the five yard variety of face mask too where you don’t get 15 yards for an incidental quick grab.

 

[litespeedhuskerfan]

NFL-PI should be a set yardage penalty like...15??? Don't like that PI is placed where it happened.

College-OT should go back to the way it was.

I want to add that I love the NFL overtime rule. If your defense can't prevent a touchdown on the opening OT drive, you deserve to lose.

I can’t stand roughing the punter. Feel like guys can’t sell out to block kick

 

[54T]

This. Its an automatic “hands to the face” penalty if a lineman does it, but backs and receivers do it all day with no call.

I hate this! Both teams should have to play defense. If your team can’t prevent a touchdown.... the other team should have to also prevent a touchdown. Coin flips shouldn’t determine games.

 

[WC_'sker]

Get rid of the namby-pamby chop block rule. If your knees can't handle it, you shouldn't be on the field!

(just kidding...I've had three knee operations...keep the chop-block rule)

Defense determines games. Not coin flips.

 

[huskerhooligansdotcom]

Defense determines games. Not coin flips.

Then both teams should have to play defense. The winner of the coin flip has a huge advantage

No disrespect my friend. If I'm a defender, I would absolutely welcome the challenge.

Horse collar needs to stay. Prime example of that is the Dak Prescott injury.

 

[Pennsyhusker]

The rule that says if your helmet comes off you have to sit out the next play. Completely useless and stupid rule

 

[Baxter48]

Weren’t some teams using the helmet off to stop the clock on purpose? I thought that was one reason they implemented the rule

 

[Sinomatic]

With today's rules? I can see your argument for maybe 2000 and prior. But the rule changes have been so pro offense the last 20 or so years that I don't think that would be a fair rule in the current climate.
