i seriously hate the OT system in pro football. it is ridiculously unfair.

don't give me the shitty argument about how the team should have won in the regulation, that's not how it works. you don't say that about baseball or basketball or college football, so what makes the pro football so special? both teams deserve a shot at a win in OT, not just the first to score.

Agreed use the college system or something close to it maybe start a little further then the 25 its that simple.

the two things that need to be changed in pro football are the OT rules and the PI calls. As far as PI goes, I think they should get rid of the spot file and just make it a 15 yard penalty no matter what. Those 50-60 yard penalty calls can drastically impact a game. As far as OT goes, I was talking to my cousin and were saying the best way is to just play half a quarter, so 7:30, and whichever team has the lead after 7:30 is the winner. So basically similar to basketball. What do you guys think?

This would be the best scenario but what would happen if its still tied. Would you play another 15 mins or would you go to sudden death then?

If it's a regular season game, it'll end in a tie after 15 min. If it's a playoff game, you play the one OT quarter for sure, but if it has to go into double OT, then it should be the first team to score.

I say keep going!

Even in the regular season. Screw ties.

If the players don't want to play that long and risk injury, they can step up and end it. (Or just allow more people on the roster.)

i like the idea of a half quarter, that seems pretty fair. a full extra quarter might kill people.play it till the end, then in double OT the first to score wins.

get rid of ties. ties suck. I'd rather lose then tie. ties are like the consolation trophy that every kid gets in their soccer league for just participating. "everyone's a winner." no, person who says that, everyone is not a winner.

      TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive.

      Teddy Checkdown in trouble

      I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
