Excessive celebration is another bad one. What's wrong with someone turning a few flips and doing a dance after scoring a touchdown? Teams are made up of individuals, and individuals have feelings. Having an opponent score on you because you f-ed up your coverage assignment is penalty enough…you don’t need the dirty bird dance, discount double-check move…or whatnot in your face after that. We aren’t Neanderthals!

A safety is a penalty - but otherwise it is as if the QB was tackled right there. Same down and ball is spotted right where it would have been had he not thrown it away. There is no reason not to IG the ball and hope it does not get called. No that's wrong. If it's 2nd and 6 and there's a IG flag, the next play would be 3rd and 16. All other penalties when accepted results in replaying the down. So holding on first down will result in loss of yards then replaying first down. There's only a loss of yards for holding. But IG is loss of yards AND loss of down.

I think the NFL should let us OT fellers run the Cowboys, and the league.

The best foul of the weekend and maybe the year was last night when Mahomes was flagged for illegal procedure because he raised his hands too fast while in the Shotgun formation.

Neutral Zone Infraction, when defense enters causing the offense to react ( or lineman intentionally reacts before defense can get back)

Worst rule is a fumble thru the end zone is a touchback.
Should be the same as fumble out of bounds , not a change of possesion.
MO I agree. That one makes zero sense.

The rule that happened in cowboys game against the broncos, where we blocked the punt but because the ball went past the line of scrimmage denver recovered and got the first down. If the punt is blocked it should never give the punting team an opportunity to be able to recover for a first down. Maybe a re-kick but not a first down. they need to put up more cheerleader time during the broadcast, those poor ladies don't get enough recognition for the work they do. Most importantly the cheerleaders, that is what makes college ball better is more cheerleader time.

Pass interference should go completely away. This would get rid of all those pansy speed backs. If the D back slams you down, he won that down. If you push him down, you won. Also the QB should yell out jackpot when he throws the ball up. And get rid of the back of the endzone all together. Put up a wall. If a fumble bounces off the wall its live. If a player catches the ball on the wall it is good. Running up the wall to catch the ball is cooler than diving with your stupid toes extended anyhow.

Pass interference should go completely away. I just think its ridiculous that the receiver can cut back into the defender, initiate contact and get pass intereference called on the defense because he didn't "turn around".

I thought the worst rule was manditory taking a knee before the game.
Thanks, Billy

The intentional grounding rule is stupid. Penalty should always be worse than the outcome if the foul hadn't been committed. It should be 10 yards from the spot of the penalty plus loss of down. As it is, there's no reason for a QB not to just chunk it wherever and hope there is a receiver nearby. And "nearby" is used way too loosely. Fumble through the end zone is a close 2nd. Pass interference should go completely away. I just think its ridiculous that the receiver can cut back into the defender, initiate contact and get pass intereference called on the defense because he didn't "turn around". This is accurate also

Not a penalty issue but I believe that over time touch down (on opening drive) should not end the game till the kicker makes the extra point . Too many missed extra points in the current NFL to end a game on just the touch down.

Make them both a 10 yard penalty. That's a terrible idea. That would incentivize defenses to purposefully interfere on passes longer than 10 yards. Would you rather give up a 30 yard pass or take a 10 yard penalty? No no no. That would ruin the game. Hasn't ruined the college game. College needs to change theirs to a spot foul if on the defense.
