I'd happily give both them up to keep the Saints.

London Monarchs vs New England Patriots (biggest rivalry of the future)

Aren't London the Silly Nannies?

 

[Toadvine]

I'm not still upset about it if that's what you're thinking.

 

[Scully2Folau]

Wonder if they'd like some fries with that salt?

2. As for the league's investigation as to whether the Patriots used deliberately deflated footballs in the AFC title game win over theColts, Goodell said the NFL hasn't "put a timetable" on the investigation being headed up by league gumshoe Ted Wells. It's worth noting that Goodell indicated the investigation doesn't have to be solved by the draft, which strikes us as interesting.


4. Goodell wouldn't provide much light on the texting scandal surrounding the Browns, saying: "Any violation of our rules is something that we take seriously. It affects the integrity of the game and all 32 teams need to be operating under the same rules. I think our clubs expect that and our fans expect that. So any violation of that is treated seriously." Goodell told reporters that he expects the issue to receive top focus "in the next couple of days."

 

[Exe Gesis]

So in other words, delaying Patriots long as possible so no punishment in terms of stripped Lombardi or lost draft picks occurs.

And wording regarding Browns is like punishment will be swift and severe.

Among the variations discussed:

» A team could go for two points from the 1 1/2-yard line or kick an extra point from the 15.

» Eliminate the extra point altogether and just place the ball at the 2-yard line, making it a two-point play.

» Narrow the goal posts.

» A college-type rule in which a defense could score a touchdown on a blocked kick or interception or fumble return on a two-point conversion.

Regardless, the league seems hell-bent on making some progress, especially in the next 30 days.

» Eliminate the extra point altogether and just place the ball at the 2-yard line, making it a two-point play.

Anything but this. If you remove the choice of 1 point vs 2 points you really start to f*** with the game way too much.

I wonder if the good folk on Bigfooty American Football Board can come up with ideas. And then start a new thread poll with the best ideas, and then email/tweet Roger.

College rule should be implemented regardless. Just adds another layer of interest.

don't watch much college but I love that stuff, imagine the mayhem/carnage if such a play decided a playoff game.

I would make it a four point play tho, not six. With no extra point after.

Then again imagine a team scores a td then has their pat returned for a td then that team has their pat returned for a td.

So you are advocating the down by NO contact rule?

 

[Exe Gesis]

No I'm referring to the rule allowing a return td on a pat.

BTW, I would also like the nfl to implement the Canadian Rouge... One point scored if you kick the ball into the endzone and trap the returner inside there. Except I would just make it doable on punts only. In Canada you can score a Rouge even in general play, kicking the ball as you run with it.

Jarrod Hayne would be made for that rule

Maybe he should go trial with the alouettes

Thats right

 

[Exe Gesis]

Not from kickoffs just punts or kicks in general play (cfl)
