[QUOTE="takethepoints, post: 943797, member: 265"] I look at these rule changes and think, "Gee, I wonder how broad Paul's smile would be if he was still coaching?" They are absolutely made for running teams that depend on holding the ball. Shoot, the academies will eat this up. All told, I agree with those above: you want to speed up the game, get rid of video reviews. What are the refs for anyhow? Let them make the calls and get rid of all the ridiculous back-and-forth between the tv crews and the "experts" who look at the film. Everybody would benefit, even the refs. The fans can always grouse about what they see on the jumbotrons after the game. But that won't happen, more's the pity. Finally, I am at a loss to see why the folks who make the rules think that speeding up the games will help get in the fans. Football is losing fans in the stands because a) people can watch at home and b) fewer and fewer young people are playing football (as a proportion of kids, that is). You want more people to come to the games, even out the present inequalities in the game to give more teams a chance to have a winning record and stop showing every football game in creation on tv. I think it t really is just that simple. And that difficult. [/QUOTE]
