UNBELIEVABLE

WHAT WERE THEY THINKING


These new rules to protect the QB are just beyond stupid.
The Game is football, not flag, touch, or basketball. Contact is the game.

This rule is so stupid and possibly could end up hurting the game itself in the long run. I am surprised actually shocked at the NFL rules committee agreeing to such absurdity. It puts them on a level of stupidity and probably also greed of say that of most our Congress, which is truly disgraceful in my book.

Maybe the NFL is really looking to acquire more revenue with even more of this new policy we've seen the last few years of adding along with the 15 yards a monetary fine to the players or 10, 20, 30 thousand +.

Give them time and we will see them F--k up the worlds greatest game and turn it into a sport with so many restrictions it not even football any more.

Wouldn't be surprised if sometime down the road we're force fed to listen to "Sponsors" bringing us every play. First and ten brought to you by Charman toilet tissues, the kind the commish uses to clean the spot on Belichicks *** every time he kisses it..........

Commercials every series, and they are worried about instant replay slowing the game.

GIVE ME A BREAK !!!

They are screwing up the worlds greatest game.....

Planet Earth = the Insane Asylum of the Universe.
 
Soon the pass rushers will have to count Mississippi's.
 
I think its funny that the patriots were one of the teams pushing for the new qb protection rules. Didn't they have players associated with Balco? Spygate? For a team that gets away with pretty much everything, they sure do cry alot. That db that hit Brady last year did exactly what he was supposed to do.

This rule was passed by the competition committee a few weeks ago and bill polian and jeff fisher were key people to get this done as per bill polian.

i am confused as you indicate that bill polian was lying 7 weeks ago,
 
Maybe they should issue the QB's little flags for their panties, so then the refs could really control the out come of games and make the leauge happy.
 
There is plenty of logic in their decision. The average person wants to see the stars throw the ball as much as possible. When a Tom Brady goes down, the product suffers.
 
I would rather see QB's and kickers getting crushed, old school style. Of course it should be a legitimate hit, and no dirty cheap shots.

It's a new game...

"May I" rules...
[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica]There is a goal line and a starting line. The player who is "Captain"(QB) stands at the line. The "Captain" addresses one player(LBer) at a time to "Take one giant step" or "Take 5 baby steps" or "Skip three steps", etc. That player must remember to say "Captain, May I?" and wait for permission before he can advance. If the player forgets to ask permission first, he must return to the starting line. The Captain then addresses another player on the line and continues until one player finally reaches the QB. That player then becomes the "Captain."[/FONT]
:crazy:
 
I watch football for the players and the amazing plays they make, little hard to watch them perform when they get laided out with a cheap shot. I agree with all the safety rule changes except the new QB rule, that was put in place to appease NE, and their cash cow Brady. I bet that if another CB gets in a simular situation like the KC CB did last year, it would be worth a 15 yarder to see the NE season implode again.......

so how are you supposed to stop receivers coming across the middle if you cant use shoulder or forearm? expect a form tackle everytime? sweet jebus!
 
The rule clarification--not really a change--is perfectly logical from the NFL's perspective...they're protecting their assets. Elite QBs are franchise players who lead their teams to victories, which fill stadiums, which increases revenue.
 
My Sons Overtime Rule

MY son brought up the best overtime thing i ever heard. he told me that it shouldn't be base on the coin toss. it should be the longest field goal kick. home field advantage kicks 2nd. keep in mind this will be off a tee,no kick rush. so if the 1st kicker hits a 60yarder the 2nd kicker needs to kick a 61yarder to get the ball 1st.. if the 1st guy misses the other kicker has to hit a 45 yarder. thats the least. cant put the ball on the 5 yard line. well i like it cause its a team battle to the end. not a lucky coin toss
