Re: Around the NFL...Week 4 Style

The league wide battle of offense vs defense goes back and forth. Who's to say some defensive genius won't develop a scheme that limits offenses even under the new regime of rules?

Re: Around the NFL...Week 4 Style

I certainly think the defense has the short straw right now and if Orakpo was healthy I'm sure people would've pointed out how he is not getting holding calls. I would like to see a little more leeway for the defense as too much scoring is just as boring as not enough scoring.

I wish the league would revert back to classic NFL. The 6'5 receiver and TE's just can't be covered with rules that are set up to benefit the Offense.

I like 20-17 games much more then 40-37 games.

I know its for player safety and not the benefit of defense but the practically automatic touchbacks certainly benefit defenses too.

Re: Around the NFL...Week 4 Style

The rule against prohibiting low hits on QBs came after Bernard Pollard took out Brady in 2008.
