An innovative proposal that will go nowhere. (Just for laughs)

Someone mentioned in another thread that McAdoo seems to actually get plays called and into the huddle in a timely fashion. Given that this has been an issue with the Panthers for at minimum over a decade, with the number of penalties, wasted time outs, and flat out broken plays resulting from a group of highly paid millionaires being unable to do a basic function of their job in a timely manner, I propose that the NFL adopts a new rule (which they never will) in fairness to their fans:

Every delay of game penalty or time out called by the home team to avoid the play clock expiring shall result in all prices at the concession stands being lowered by a dollar for the remainder of the game, and a refund of 5 dollars per incident to season ticket holders. If NFL owners want to whine about their lost revenue, fine, they can take the lost revenue from the lost parties salaries: HC, OC, and starting QB.

I get it, the NFL is hypercompetitive and other teams have good players too, I can't demand a Super Bowl and claim to be reasonable, but what I can demand as a paying customer is that highly paid professionals execute mundane basics of their jobs at a competent level.

Post your own suggestion of things NFL teams screw up that they have no excuse to screw up here.

oh I hold no illusions this would ever actually happen, I just thought it would be fun to throw out a fan oriented idea for laughs and see if others come up with similar notions. I agree Tepper ain't giving up poo.

    • There's relentless discussion of Panthers football and the most important position of football on a site dedicated specifically to the discussion of Panthers football... my god, who would've expected such a wild thing???
    • Article:   The Carolina Panthers traded veteran Adam Thielen back to the Minnesota Vikings in the offseason. There was some early speculation about how that would go, as Carolina was trusting a very young wide receiver corps and moving on from their most reliable and productive offensive target.  Quickly, it looked like, at the very least, the Panthers got something for nothing. Thielen had no impact on the Vikings, and while the passing offense could've used Thielen at times early on, the Panthers have adapted and honestly thrived without him.    After Week 13, in which Bryce Young connected with Jalen Coker and Tetairoa McMillan for scores in a big win over the Los Angeles Rams, and the Vikings got nothing on offense again from Thielen (or anyone), they waived him.  The statement indicates that Thielen requested this, saying he wants to spend what could be the final weeks of his NFL career contending and playing on a team that can win. It sure sounds like a reunion would make sense for both sides.  The Panthers don't need Thielen, but he probably needs them. Other contenders, like the Buffalo Bills or New England Patriots, could use him more, but he runs the risk of failing to grasp everything in time for it to matter.  While the Panthers have changed their offense from last year and from training camp to now, it's still much closer to what Thielen knew early on. Re-learning this offense would be much less of a challenge for Thielen in the five remaining weeks.  Plus, with a bye week coming up, Thielen would have two weeks to prepare. He did really excellent work with Bryce Young, who he clearly has chemistry with. Why not run it back as the Panthers improbably contend for a division crown?   Thielen was mostly a volume contributor in Carolina. There was no one else reliable, so he got most of the targets and most of the catches. But even in a reduced role, it is highly likely he'd do better as WR3/WR4 in Carolina than WR3 in Minnesota.    Thielen and the Panthers proved to be a perfect match one time. They could be again, and it would be hilarious to get Thielen and the pick they acquired for him in one season.      
    • It was basically a one-possession game the entire game, we traded leads a few times; this is because the Rams are a good team.   Defense got 3 turnovers but allowed a lot of points. Bryce threw for 3TDs with no turnovers and made two huge plays on 4th downs.
