Bite your tongue, even so I’ll watch nowWhat a great city to get drafted to and looks like he has a chance to play. XFL getting some major pub after some interesting rule changes that are making people look at the NFL rules differently. Good for Dungey. Crush it
Does anyone think that? I look at them as trying to capitalize on a void left once the NFL season is over. If they manage to get enough of a foothold to let them stick around awhile, their rules differences could get enough talk to make the NFL think about them, kind of like how the ABA made the NBA think about using the 3 point shot.It’s always funny how people think these leagues will challenge the NFL grip.

But a number of the things the XFL are doing are things people have already suggested, like the running clock. I like the extra point stuff too. It's easy to see how they could consider changes there since they recently made a change. This isn't the old XFL where many of the rules were opposite of the direction the sport was going regarding safety.The many years I’ve been on here, anytime some league has started/continued/changed rules there’s people who think it’ll challenge the NFL in some way. I can’t remember the last big thread there was a number of years ago but I feel like it was around the time of QB hits/rule changes and people feeling like the NFL was turning into 2 hand touch.
That will resonate with a few posters here.No punts within the the 35?????

To my knowledge T Hill’s bigger, faster and has a better arm at this timeNice, glad for him.
What makes T Hill so appealing to the Saints? I’m not familiar with his collegiate career.
Why can’t ED find a similar role in the NFL?
Oh ok. I hadn't seen anyone suggest that here or in the media and since the leagues don't play durimg the same time period your comment had me lost.I wasn’t debating anything about rules, just pointing out the last time frame I recall some posters saying the nfl was going to lose viewers to some other league.
