Re: You're the commisioner...

I would eliminate the 'conclusive evidence' part of instant replay, but specifically for over-ruling. How many times do we hear, "It might be have been called a fumble, but there is not enough to overturn it"?
Who cares what the call on the field is? Isn't that the point of reviewing it?
Review everything objectively, without the bias of the on the field call.

Re: You're the commisioner...

Lets really fix some things... level the entire playing field... Make the game about the game and not tertiary conditions that are controllable.

Environment:
1. Effective immediately crowd noise rules will be enforced once again.

2. All grass fields will be converted to turf.

3. Violations of the Leagues PED rule call for immediate 16 game suspension with no pay. Head coach gets 4 game suspension. Period.

4. Instant Replay is no longer conducted by the referee on the field. Head office does it, in NY, by a Panel of 7.. Most votes is the decision.

Game Play:
1. Keuchly Rule - If the receiver does not have the ball, you can not tackle him in the endzone.

2. QBs can get hit once again...

3. No more Over Time. get it done in regulation or its a tie.

4. ALL playoff games are held on a neutral field that is owned by one of the play off teams... E.g. Denver vs New England would have been in New Orleans and New Orleans vs Seattle would have been in San Francisco.

CBA:
1. Goodell is no longer the appellate for any Goodell decisions.

Extras:
1. No more Pro bowl - Each year the Pro Bowl players will go to a different rotational stadium (all 32) and meet the fans, for pictures, autographs, and bromance.



Interesting tid-bit I just realized. Correct me if I am wrong but the New Orleans Saints were the only dome team that made the playoffs.

Re: You're the commisioner...

On a serious note, I would change the ref system. Have a group of people in a room with a set of televisions recorded by cameras call the penalties.

And I would also make everything challengeable. There are bad calls, we are humans, we should be able to fix something that we messed up.

Lucas Oil isn't really a dome, it's a retractable roof that they leave open most of the time.

And here it is closed.

It was open most of the season, but it was closed for the playoff game.

It's a team labeling quandary.

Re: You're the commisioner...

I wish we had a retractable roof stadium. don't get me wrong the Superdome is great and with all the renovations is nice as just about any other stadium in the league. But open air and sunlight on a Sunday noon game would be pretty fantastic.
