but at the same time all these rules take the play out of the game and put the refs into determining the play....I am afraid this is a way that they can find penalties by way of wanting certain teams to win games.
If they really want this rule to work then I want to see every play that a ref throws against one team to be done to the other at a consistent basis...
Basically it just looks to me that every time you let the refs take a game over by their "opinion" of a rule teams are screwed and others get the pass......In other words they are making the game way too complicated for a human to actually referee a game....each team of refs just seem to have different versions of certain rules....and other just plain out and out miss the simple rules ( holding by OL.....pushing off by players).....but they continue with rules that are more interpretation than real rule...
Make the game more simple to call and stop the ability to interpret a rule...the game can still be safe doing that IMO...
