  • Changed a rule that will now force a loss of down if two passes are completed behind the line of scrimmage.

What the heck is this?

My guess is that if a QB throws a pass, then gets batted back by a defensive player, and the QB catches the ball back behind the line of scrimmage, he cannot throw it again.

I believe there was a Tom Brady pass that was completed exactly that way that facilitated the rule change.

Maybe I'm just being old school but I kind of like the traditional numbering system. It's kind of a way to differentiate college and the pros, and sort of a welcome to the big leagues thing for me. That said I'm guessing they need to new numbers so its not a huge deal at the end of the day.

      Unc Basketball thread

      Yeah the only way current set up is fun is if every year a different tiny school builds a super team and makes a run. You just need 1 rich guy to say you know what would be funny, if I drop 30 million and my school has a shot at a national championship.   They won't ever do it but put some sort of tiered salary cap in place and sign them to 4 year deals. You can only transfer up or down tiers no lateral moves because mean ole coach at texas doesn't play me enough so I'm going to Tennessee. So a player at prairie view can transfer to texas and get paid more or a player from UNC can transfer to UNCG because he isn't getting playing time. If a guy is transferring "up" he can get a salary bump if the team has salary cap space. A guy transferring down has to stay at the same salary as he signed his 4 year deal for so the lower tier team would have to have the cap space to sign him. It would stop the money chasing for lateral moves but allow guys who improve massively at lower schools to make more money as juniors and seniors and hopefully keep more guys in one place because the contract is for 4 years.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By Davidson Deac II · Posted

      His third year was worse than Bryce's third year, significantly so.  And he had a game where he threw for 120 yards, two inteceptions, and had a fumble.  He had multiple games where he threw for more int's than td's.
