These were passed.
[list=a]
  • Extend the uprights to make them five feet taller.
  • Protect players from getting the sides of their legs rolled up on — the rule already says a blocker can’t hit an opponent in the back of the legs, this proposal will add “or side” to the rule.
  • Allow the referee to consult with members of the NFL officiating department during replay reviews. The referee would be able to speak with the command center in New York to help in reviewing a play.
  • Re-organize the rules about what can be reviewed and what cannot be reviewed, including making the recovery of a loose ball in the field of play reviewable. (This is referred to as the NaVorro Bowman rule, after a controversial call in the NFC Championship Game.)
  • Don’t stop the clock on a sack.
  • Enforce defensive fouls behind the line of scrimmage from the previous spot, rather than from the end of the run or from the spot of the foul.
  • Adjust the time of the roster reduction from 53 after the fourth preseason game from 6 p.m. Eastern to 4 p.m. Eastern. All teams would have to have their list of final cuts in by 4 p.m.
  • [/list]




    These were not failed, but not passed and will be reviewed during the off-season.
    [list=a]
  • Raise the number of active players on game day from 46 to 49 for regular-season games played on a day other than Sunday or Monday, excluding Week One.
  • Raise the practice squad limit from eight players to 10 players.
  • Permit clubs to trade players prior to the start of the league year.
  • Modify pass interference so that it can be called within one yard of the line of scrimmage.
  • Move the line of scrimmage for one-point extra point kicks to the defensive team’s 25-yard line. Two-point conversion attempts would still be snapped from the 2-yard line. (League will experiment with longer extra points in the preseason.)
  • Put six cameras on all boundary lines — sideline, goal line, end line, to guarantee coverage for replay reviews.
  • [*]Permit each club to time and test up to 10 draft-eligible players at its facility, and allow any club that wishes to attend timing and testing at another team’s facility. [/list]

    They need to clean up the DPI rules.

    Until they do that, the game is a joke.

    I see the on the field stuff as the most significant.

    There's gonna be a lot of accidental and previously "clean" plays penalized with this no roll up thing - legal blocks from the side combined with a stumble or even contact with another player causing the roll up, and getting penalized. There also would be a potential for a form of flopping - pretending to be rolled up on by players who got effectively blocked. I see this as a bad change.

    I'm glad they didn't pass this d. above - the pass interference thing. It would have effectively killed bump and run coverage.

    I'm sure there is an obvious reason I"m missing, but I really would have liked the active roster to 49 passed. What's the point of having people on your 53 if you're not going to use them during the week? I'd honestly like to see all 53 allowed to be active.

    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
    beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
    dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
