Rule change idea to reward aggressive offense.

I'm real leery of any more changes to the game. Are we trying to fix something that is not broken? I have come on board with some of the newer changes that protect the players and try to keep injuries down though.
In football today almost every time there is a big play, a long run or pass play, a punt or kick off return the first thing we do is look for a yellow penalty flag. I would be for something that cut down on penalties. I don't remember years ago it being as bad as it is today.
I disagree. What makes football the greatest game is its ability to adapt. It's always tweaked its rules more than other sports because they were interested in progress not clinging to silly traditions (not to sound like a liberal or anything).

Better to be progressive than regressive.

Leave the game as is... only thing i would be on board for is more games.
We're in a quandary- most people would say the 4th preseason game is a joke, only used to decide the bottom 10 of the roster. But- there's too many injuries as it is. Adding two more games is only going to add to the total. I couldn't find the number for the NFL- but it had to be way over 100 players, with the Ravens leading the charge.

One rule change I would consider.......is trading 2 regular season games for 2 preseason games, giving us a longer reg season and earlier start on meaningful football.....and add 5 men to the roster....

I've always wanted to cut the preseason down, problem is the players and the union don't, I say add the two extra games and make every player set out two games a season, be it due to injury or not, then back up players become more important, come the last few games picking which players set against which teams would be interesting....

So dilute the product by mandating inferior players play?
I hate the idea of expanding the regular season beyond 16 games.
Four preseason games are barely enough to ID talent on the roster let alone develop it.
In '64 we played 14 game seasons and 6 preseason games...

Morten Andersen kicked 565 FGs. Why?

Like the eventual rule changes for Rollerball. No substitutions no time limit.

Just change the name "football " and get rid of pussy FGs and XPs. Let men decide the game. Make the sport badass and perfect. Morten Andersen shoud've been a pastry chef in Denmark. None of his kicks meant shit.
