OK so your the commish. Or someone who has the power to make suggestions or to change the rules in the NFL.
What would they be?
Here's mine:
1) No more taking knees of the winning team in the final seconds of the game.
Each team must play as hard as they can until the clock winds down to 0.
2) During the last 5 minutes of regulation the clock will stop after each play is completed regardless of the outcome.
3) No more "hurry up offenses." The offense must wait for the dfense to be in line and ready before the snap.
So that the D-fense doesn't stall, they will also have a play clock.
4) No more "Sudden death overtime" and no more tie games.
If the game goes into OT then it will be played the same way that college plays OT.
5) Why bother with the extra point? Instead it will be 7 points for each TD.
A team can still go for a two point conversion to make it 9. But they must start from the 10 yard line to the goal.
6) Each NFL referee will now have that as his full time job.
Your ideas....
