Pro Bowl O/U dropped from 79 to 65?

[AchillesTG]

Is that just because of last year's low score? The last several years have been in the 90's.

[spike420211]

I jumped on the over @ 65.
This is The Show 4 these guyz LOL.

[AchillesTG]

I took the Over 65 also, WTF!

Following are changes:


-A two-minute warning has been added to the first and third quarters and the ball will change hands after each quarter. This is expected to increase the opportunities for quarterbacks to direct more two-minute drills.
-No Kickoffs: The coin toss will determine which team is awarded possession first. The ball will be placed on the 25-yard line at the start of each quarter and after scoring plays.
-The defense will be permitted to play cover-2 or press coverage. In the conference format days‚ only man coverage was permitted‚ except on goal-line situations.
-Beginning at the two-minute mark of every quarter‚ if the offense does not gain at least one yard‚ the clock will stop as if the play were an incomplete pass. This rule was enacted to make the team with the ball attempt to gain yardage toward the end of each quarter.
-The game clock will start after an incomplete pass on the signal of the referee‚ except inside the last two minutes of the first half and the last five minutes of the second half.
-A 35-second/25-second play clock will be adopted instead of the typical 40- second/25-second clock.
-The game clock will not stop on quarterback sacks outside of the final two minutes of the game. Currently‚ the game clock stops in these situations outside of two minutes of the second and fourth quarters.
-The gap between goal posts will be narrowed from the standard 18.6 feet to 14 feet and the kick will be moved back to the 15-yard line, essentially making it a 25-yard kick.

[Shocked]

The clock starting after an incomplete pass is huge!

[SportsLockPicks]

Yeah, between the clock stopping on incompletions and the DB's able to play press it definitely throws a wrench into a definite high scoring game. Books must be loving all that blind money coming in on the over just because people think they are getting a deal and haven't seen these rule changes. But who knows,they could hit triple digits with this format.

So basically, it is a new game with new rules. Time to end this joke.

[pavyracer]

Let's add 100 more rules to a game already having 500 rules. Fans will love it!

[DrunkHorseplayer]

I'm on the over 66; there's no substitute for lack of tackling.

[Calgunner23]

Just can't support a game with no blitzing.. dirty.

I'd go with the 2nd half over.

[Hench]

Andy Dalton killed any chance of the over.
