Did anyone else see this? The NFL Network will be airing the American Flag Football League starting June 30th. My favorite team is going to be the Roadrunners. The team has such players as Michael Vick, Nick Collins, Jarrett Boykin and Aaron Rouse. Other former stars are OchoCinco, Jacoby Jones, Jason Avant and others.


Here is the rules

General Rules
7-on-7, twelve person roster
60 minute game, played over two 30 minute halves
Running clock, except for the final two minutes of the second half
Field divided into four 25-yard boxes, and first downs are awarded each time the offense reaches the next box
No blocking, kicking, or fumbles
Only one lateral allowed per play

Post-Snap
Once the ball is snapped, the defense has to wait two seconds to rush, and the quarterback will have a total of four seconds to release the ball or cross the line of scrimmage
The quarterback cannot run unless rushed
The defense can blitz five times per half without waiting two seconds
All players are eligible downfield, except for the center
North/south handoffs not allowed but pitches and handoffs to east/west runners permitted

Scoring
6 pts per TD under 50 yards, 7pts for TDs over 50 yards
Teams will have option based on distance to convert PATs of 1, 2 or 3 points

Penalties
Most penalties will not award yardage, but rather a free play or loss of down
Ball will generally go into play at the spot of the foul or the previous spot

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Why bother with flag football? The way they are changing the rules, the NFL will BE flag football in a couple of years!🤣

I would probably watch it. And if it was entertaining, i would keep watching.
If not, I’d watch something else.

My kids play flag. It is different. My son as an offensive lineman likes playing Defense on flag. My daughter is super fast and is her team's top running back. I would give it a watch for sure.

Mucky Tundra (17-Mar) : They're your Big Ten Chumps and you will like it!

Mucky Tundra (16-Mar) : 2021 QB Draft class looking like a real clunker
Mucky Tundra (16-Mar) : A conditional 6th rounder? I remember Bears fans arguing they'd get a day 2 pick at worst lol

dfosterf (16-Mar) : The talent is undeniable, but the (advertised) haul is obscene.
dfosterf (16-Mar) : If the Bears are cutting a deal with the Commanders, in either scenario, cannot happen until williams passes a Commanders physical
dfosterf (16-Mar) : My guess is no to the Fields extension, but yes to the trade back with the Commanders.
