That seemed to be the implication, that I was demanding a change and if it didn't happen I would be irate.
is there a 'jump to conclusions mat' at your desk?

Wouldn't yours be a "waddle to conclusions" mat?

Well, I admittedly wouldn't jump. But I could roll my chair over there and put my feet on it.

I like the 15 yard rule as well. I don't like something that's very subjective like Pass interference can dramatically change a game. I don't like it at all. Some referees see a love tap and the ball is on the 1 yard line, some referees don't notice the WR initiate contact and it's down at the 1 yard line. It's the only penalty in football that a team could go the length of the field on 1 penalty. I hate it.

I agree it should be 15 yards, and if the defender is completely mugging the WR, then it should be 15 yard personal foul unnecessary roughness tacked on.

But just regular pass interference should be 15 yards so a bad PI call doesn't change the outcome of the game so blatantly.

Right now a QB can toss a 70 yard bomb and if a WR runs into the DB and trips over his own feet the DB can be called for PI and the offense just gained 70 yards, it's a stupid rule.

There are enough rules which benefit the offense, they got rid of the force out rule, it is time to get rid of the spot foul on PI.

The game has changed to allow more scoring, why do you think the KO's were moved back 5 yards? To allow better field position and more ST opportunities.
I see your point, but I worry w/ 15 yard penalty DB's will be more willing to knock down WR's if they're about to get beat deep or good chance....spot foul keep's them "Honest"

but there are bad penalaties...there are PI not called either.

I would think 15 yards plus another 15 yards for a mugging would be pretty severe, and would keep them honest as well. PI is very subjective, that's why I don't like it being a spot foul, it is call that gets screwed up either not called or should have been called.

Basically illegal contact then, which you get 5 yards for.

then we'll see WRs start flopping when there's the littlest bump trying to get the extra 15 yards as well.... do we really want to turn it into the NBA?

Worse...Soccer. The WR flop and roll in agony waiting for the stretcher. Only to get up and run back onto the field 1 play later like nothing happened.

You mean, because nothing actually happened.

Except for the extreme drama of rolling around the ground in agony.

I never understood how they could act so injured like someone ripped out their testicles with an ice pick, and then trot back on the field 15 seconds later as if that drama never occurred.

I'd at least fake limp around for a while, to at least try to act like I was really injured. I don't think I could just stand right up and start running admitting I just put on the worst act of all time.
