This Sunday in Phoenix the NFL Annual Meeting will commence and among the things on the table for discussion are proposed rule changes.
In fact there are 23 rules changes that have been suggested, 18 of which have come from the teams.
Some have merit and represent nothing more than minor tweaks. One such change would require head coaches to call a timeout if they want to challenge a ruling on the field instead of throwing the red flag. If they win the challenge, they’ll get their timeout back.
Simple enough.
On the other end of the spectrum is an idea coming from the Indianapolis Colts that makes me wonder if Jim Irsay is still abusing substances. In the Colts proposal, teams that are successful during a two-point conversion attempt will get a chance to add a third point with a 50-yard kick.
Isn’t the game just fine the way it is?
Press play for full disclosure…
