Let me start by saying I hate the kneel down.  I understand using it if you are winning by more than one possession, and the game is out of reach.  But if you are up by only one touchdown or less, I don't think it should be allowed.  My solution would be to count a kneel as a spike unless you are up by more than one possession.  Make the team run an actual play.  Have the clock stop.  Play to the whistle is not a bad mantra.  BUT.....
 
As far as Schiano goes, he is a dumbass.  He can now never ever complain if a team runs up the score on him, or takes pot shots at his QB.   I understand his desire to instill toughness and a better attitude, but pissing coaches and owners off in the new safety first era is a bad idea.  If I were Coughlin, I would ask for a review of league policy to insure my linemen aren't injured on a meaningless play.  Maybe it could be flagged as unnecessary roughness?  If any team could regain possession and re-take control of the game from a kneel, everybody would do it.  Schiano needs to smarten up.
