changes for 2012

so, another season almost over for most of us...here's a couple of changes I'd like to see for 2012 and beyond:

1. a facemask is a facemask...the runner can pretty much punch you in the face and as long as he doesn't grasp the facemask, it's all good...where as the defender even touches the helmet and it gets called. I'd like to see it one way or the other.

2. a penalty is a penalty. I've always hated how if you are too close to the endzone, a penalty is half the distance. I think they should march off all penalties up to the one yard line, regardless of how close you are. Get a 10 yard penalty at the 11 yard line, you go to the 1...get a 10 yard penalty at the 9 yard line, you go to the 1. 10 yard penalty from the 12 get's you to the 2...not half the distance.

3. let's take the soccer out of football. I'd like to see a penalty for these fricken wide receivers that don't make the catch and all come up pleading for an interference call. If it's interference fine, call it, but if not, I'd like to see the receiver get an unsportsmanlike penalty or something.

thoughts....additions?

      Panthers run ONE play on repeat

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I'm left with two possible conclusions here. One, Reich just saw a sucker in Tepper and hit him up for a check to ride into retirement on. Two, Reich took the job expecting a different QB to be the pick probably through his influence of the draft process. He and Bryce seemed like a major mismatch from the get go. Unless he was just looking for one last payday I really don't think he would've taken the job if he felt like Bryce would ultimately be the pick. There was a lot of talk about Reich always preferring QBs with good size and big arms. Now granted, all else being equal who doesn't? But it was always talked about that Bryce was basically the physical antithesis of what Reich had historically preferred at QB. Hell, maybe it was a little bit of both. I can get this newbie owner to give me a pile of money based on my experience because his woefully inexperienced coach flopped horribly and then hopefully I can influence the draft process to get the QB I want. If not, oh well. At least I got paid! LOL

      How accurate is Madden for coaches?

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I don't think it's very accurate at all overall IMO. I just think back to the Cam era. Madden had to incorporate read option in order to even begin to replicate the Panthers' offense but there were only a handful of read option plays in the playbook. Realistically, I bet at a third of our passing plays in those days involved some aspect of read option and a third might be conservative.

      Welcome Charles Lee to Charlotte. He's the Hornets' new coach

      By frankw · Posted

      Well that's the problem. What's "good enough" at this juncture? Have we not learned anything from our Carolina Panthers in this area? I don't see us getting a proper return value right now with the rest of the NBA knowing our predicament. Look at what the Pelicans have dealt with in relation to Zion. The best path is to revisit this next year where there is a high probability his value will increase with improvement under Charles Lee. The biggest variable is the question of how much he will actually play. We just have to wait and see. I know one thing. The NBA better give us minimum another top 3 pick.
