OT: Ravens want a point for the team whose kickoff goes through the uprights

[BradyFTW!]

This might be the dumbest idea I've ever heard.

 

[BradyFTW!]

" What Ravens want" has a lot of potential . . .

Ravens want a point for every time a player drags their fiancée out of an elevator by the hair.

And another for every time a player drags his wife from a car. Convicted of obstruction? 10 points.

This **** always wants to make rule changes that suits HIS TEAM at HIS TIME. What douche. Is this really happening? So HardBawl gets a very good kicker who is capable of kicking through the uprights, and he actually has the nads to ask the league to bend the rules to HIS strengths and HIS teams advantage? WOW, just WOW. So maybe we get a rule change, that anytime a QB with 4 rings gets a TD, he gets an extra point for, ...well just because. Jeez, this guy is insane. And the worst part of it is, if it is used against him, he will cry foul. I really can't stand this A hole. Or anyone in that Org. This league is a joke. And it is killing the game

 

[Silver Blue&Red]

Yum Yum. ...Oh, where were we?

I would like to see something like Australian rules football where you get a point for drop kicking the ball through the uprights. Nate Ebner could convert to wide receiver and become a force.

2 points if you have 76 or higher "swag" during a game
-3 points if you cry for your mama
5 points if you fail an onside kick.....but it was a good try

And finally:

 

[pheenix11]

I have an idea, the referees could hold flash cards and before every play the defense has to identify the eligible receivers. If they get it right, they get a point and a cookie.

How about trap doors in the field that randomly open to release starving carnivores?

Are you telling me Beavis and Butthead was actually a portrayal of Jim and John?

 

[Tony2046]

I have a better idea.

I love this idea, but only if the returner gets to carry a 25 foot canoe oar with a giant foam hand on the end of it that he can use to try to deflect the ball before it crosses the uprights. But he has to run to the sideline to grab the oar as part of a three legged race with the largest o-lineman on team, hoping that the oar is assembled by a team of oompa loompas (who count towards the salary cap) before they get there. If they successfully block the kick, they get 2 points.

 

[sb1]

I know! How about 2 bonus points for a pass that hits the pylon at the goal line plus you win one of those giant stuffed bears like at the carnival... and if you carry it with you for the rest of the game your team gets an extra touchdown. What say you Goodell?

 

[RelocatedPatFan]

Ooooohhh, Style points!

Let's see, 1 extra point (no 2 point conversion possible) for a person who performs a perfect forward flip while crossing the goal line for a TD?

For every extra 7 points you score more than your opponent, you can carry over 1 extra point to the next game?

I have a better idea.

OT: I've used that pic I posted before but can't remember what the topic was. Have we discussed something like this before?

I think last year there was a thread about changing the extra point rules. Maybe you broke it out then?

 

[Nehalem]

Seems like a good way to reduce the number of kickoff returns.

After the failure of moving touchbacks to the 25 yard line NFL just might try this idea, in the name of player safety.

Amazing how dumb some of these coaches are. Even the ones who won a superbowl. First he whines about opposing teams, then he does the same thing without any success and now he wants an extra point for a kick that goes through uprights ? What the actual F ???

BB proposes sidelines cameras and moving PAT back and making the game more competetive and other end of the spectrum you have douche bags like Harbaugh who have no clue how the game is played. Coaches like him, Jeff Fisher are a disgrace to NFL. I am not saying he shouldn't propose a rule change but that he should at least think over his stupid thoughts before making them public.

At one point I thought he'd be a good coach to replace BB here in NE. Not anymore.

 

[Sicilian]

I'm going to solve all the NFL's problems right now. They seem hell bent on three things:

1) Making sure the Patriots never win again.
2) Increasing scoring.
3) Eliminating kickoff returns.

So here's what they should do: Expand the end zone out to each 20 yard line. That way the best part of the Patriots defense (Red Zone tightening) is screwed, touchdowns will go through the roof, and it will be almost impossible for a kickoff NOT to be a touchback.

Roger, I prefer my fee in cash please. I don't wanna bump up a tax bracket.

Let's see if tuck can get us that 1 point

It was the narrowing the uprights thread.

NFL considering narrowing the uprights
