[QUOTE="net, post: 479749, member: 200"] Here is something they would NEVER DO, but to me the TV timeouts after change of possession would go. It slows the game tremendously. I would make up that time by extending halftime. I would largely adopt college rules, for safety. If you go down, you are down. You can't get up and run some more. I would allow bump and run on receivers all over the field, but, like college, one foot in would be a catch. There would be no overtimes. Ties would return. It really makes things interesting. What does overtime prove that couldn't be proven in 4 quarters? I would grant 4 points to any field goal over 50 yards. That helps an inferior team stay in games. I would set up an NFL-sponsored Spring-Summer football league. It would be composed of free agents and players off the practice squads. Each division would sponsor one team, making an 8-team league. It would keep fan interest going during the extremely long off-season. The teams could rotate one home game among the sponsoring teams. Thus the NFC North Knights would host home games in Detroit, Chicago, Green Bay and Minnehaha. [/QUOTE]
