NFL considering changing two rules...
-
The problem with the catch rule for me is the introduction of the term 'process'.
I remember when I learnt what was a catch in the NFL that it was 'OK, catch and both feet, knee, arm or whatever that states that you're in bounds'.
Now they have to check thoroughly what happens between catcher's hand and the ball for 5 mins in an action that took place in less than a second. Did the ball move? Did it survive the ground? Did the catcher move or even free it for a second to assure that he makes the catch? (In Spanish we call it a two time catch)
The reviewing time-play time ratio is way too big on this one. And it happens even if it's not a catch for a TD!!!

There should be two tiers to PI.
One that is less flagrant (CB makes contact without turning head around, etc.) should be 15 yards.
But if it’s a 60 yd pass and the CB is beat and he tackles the WR? That should be a spot foul.
If they change everything to 15 yds, then a CB beat for a touchdown will just tackle the WR, because why wouldn’t you? 15 yds is better than a TD for the defense.

On #1 they need to address the issue.
On #2 Buddah is on to something, the free chuckit 60 yard penalty is way to easy, but changing it to either 15 or spot becomes the dreaded judgement call but better than it is now. The 15 only in college isn't good either, someone is clearly beat for a TD just deck him and only get 15.

The only change to PI should be in the endzone. PI in the endzone should be a TD.

What?

Rather than placing the ball at the 1 yard line pass interference in the end zone should be ruled a TD

What if it's offensive PI. A TD for the D?
Then why not make a safety be worth 6 points?
And while we're at it we'll do away with 'half the distance to the goal'. If a penalty moves you into the end zone then you get 6 points. (or your opponent gets 6 if it moves you into your own end zone)

Ok I'll buy som of the other arguments but come on, I was obviously referring to defensive PI

I understood that. I'd be for it if you could limit it to just 'intentional' PI. But that's subjective.
