    How about this? Make it so the uprights are 100 ft higher? or make it so the uprights move from left to right as the kicker is trying to get the ball in. This would require a machine but who cares since the NFL has a lot of money.

    Or let one defensive player get on another player's shoulders.

    Holy shit! The answer just came to me. You put the defense and offense where they would stand during a normal kick but you make the kicker stand 10 yards back. The kicker now has to race to the ball and see if he can kick it before any of the defensive players reach the ball.

    What about TDs are worth 7, and each team gets a play from the 3 to add an extra point? No penalty if you miss so its either 7 or 8 points per TD...

    How about the NFL takes the coin flip away.

    Each team has 1 guy stand at the 50 yard line and the ref throws the ball and whoever runs and retrieves it first gets their choice of the kickoff.

    We can rename the league the XFL

    Exactly. Why have a player score the extra point? Why not get the audience involved in the whole experience. 10 people are randomly picked before the game and they are the ones that get to go out on the field and kick the extra point. Now the fans can actually feel like they're doing something for the team.

    Every NFL team should be required to suit up at least 3 female players for every game.

    50% of America is female and there are currently 0 females in the league. This is all clearly the result of sexism. In 50 years when our league is integrated they will look down on these times as a black eye dark ages sort of thing.

    WOMEN ARE JUST AS GOOD AS MEN and anybody who says otherwise is just a big fat bigoted sexist. We are all equal.

    The try is boring. The try takes time. The try is dangerous (more hits). The try is automatic. Get rid of it.

    If NFL copied and injected into the rulebook a gladiator days/roman coliseum type themed game.......

    The game would become the shit overnight over its already largest popularity in the world ......

    they would have to build stadiums to hold 200,000 fans.......

    TDs should be worth 10 points and field goals 4.5

    The reason the PT is from the 2 yard line is so that teams can have the chance to fake it and score a TD. If it's impossible to score a PT then teams will be faking the PT or going for 2 which is basically what the NFL wants. So you basically agree with NFL's stupid idea.

    Exactly.

    PAT's are a ridiculous waste of time long term

    The extra point has to be the least dangerous play in football, a lot of teams dont even try to block it and the only person i ever rememeber getting seriously hurt is Gronk and hes always hurt plus he had no reason being in on a PAT. your other points are valid though.

    Why is it that you feel they need to keep it?


    I have no problem with making it automatic as long as the decision to go for two results in either 6 or 8 (depending on conversion)
