2008 Rule Changes

Quote:
The owners did pass several resolutions, including eliminating the forceout on receptions; allowing teams to defer their decision to the second half when winning the opening coin toss; and making field goals and extra points subject to replay review to determine whether the ball passes over the crossbar and through the uprights.

In addition, any direct snap from center that is untouched by the quarterback now will be a live ball; in the past it was considered a false start and the play was blown dead. The 5-yard penalty for incidental contact with a facemask has been eliminated, with the 15-yarder remaining for any grasping or twisting of the facemask.
Also, a defensive radio helmet is allowed.

Justin Smith
Mar 03, 2008 - 10:39 AM - by Crazy_Joe
The Justin Smith signing was the worst piece of s*** i have seen this year. Justin Smith will do NOTHING with the 49ers because he is a 4-3 defensive end not a 3-4 anything. With the Bengals he was good but never great. He is not worth 45 million over 6 years with 20 million guaranteed. WTF!!!!

NFL Draft 2008
Feb 25, 2008 - 9:11 AM - by Mr Hanki's Throne
On the NFL Network, players are going through the combine in the RCA Dome. I did not know that would be the last event to be held there. The drawings of the new stadium makes it look inspired by baseball parks.

Anyway, from the little I gathered, Howie Long's son has been getting a lot of love from the prognosticators. Any early thoughts on the #1 pick?

Preparations for Super Bowl XLII?
Jan 28, 2008 - 8:35 AM - by Goodsport
With less than a week to go, I'm preparing for my eighth-annual Super Bowl Eve viewing of Any Given Sunday on DVD before watching the Big Game this Sunday in HD, even though I have no particular rooting interest for either team.

So for those of you who are looking forward to watching Super Bowl XLII, how are you preparing for the game, both the day before and the day of?

Playoff Predictions: Championship Round

Chargers @ Patriots
I did not think that the Chargers had a chance against Indy and I was wrong. I don't think they have a chance against the Patriots and I hope that I am wrong. But I would not bet against a Patriot win.

Giants @ Packers
The GB-SEA game was fun to watch. I will hope for cold temps, snow, and a Packer victory for this game. The Giants look much better than they did earlier in the year, but the Packers are at home, healthy, and they are a very solid team on both offense and defense.
