I think this should be a rule. Instead of adding points to the team total, it should subtract points for pick sixes, safties, etc. Unless there are no points to subtract, then the difference can be added to the total of the team on defense. More complicated, but it makes things more interesting 

 

 

Yeah this will work. The NFL doesn't even know what a catch is.

 It's actually much more of a simple concept than the true definition of a catch.

Pick 6? Six points taken from the other team's score.

Fumble 6? Six points taken from the other team's score.

Safety? Two points taken from the other team's score. 

That's not to say that a catch shouldn't be simple either (clear control, two feet down inbounds, maintains control through the catch if going to the ground, ball can't touch the ground)

Even the "what if" of the intercepted / fumbling team not having any points is pretty simple. 5 points and throw a pick 6? The intercepting team is awarded one point and the intercepting team's points are wiped away. Simple.

Can't see that happening because it presents the potential for negative numbers.

Don't think the NFL wants that.

So mathematically, no different than just keeping it the way it is. Why bother?
