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.

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