This really shouldn't be a surprise, given how bad the Seahawks are with challenges.

Not sure why the negative narrative. The Seahwaks are neither among the best nor among the worst at challenges.HawkGA":2t8eaj6q said:This really shouldn't be a surprise, given how bad the Seahawks are with challenges.

I like it. I’d vote for you for the commish. :2thumbs:Fade":37ttzkum said:Each coach gets only 1 challenge, but they can challenge anything.
Under 2 minutes all replay is handled by the booth.
All scoring plays, and turnovers are no longer put under auto-review. (This is what is slowing the game down.)
If the play is so aggreges let the coach burn his challenge to overturn it.
That would shave 30 mins of downtime ez peazy.
To get the game even more sped up they should get rid of the extra point, TDs are 7 points now. Teams would be able to risk a point to go for another to still be able to get the traditional 2 point conversion if they like.
Do not cut to commercial after a TD instead the playclock runs and the team has 40 secs. to kickoff going the other way.
That would shave another 45 mins of downtime further at least.
Get rid of halftime shows and just run commercials for 15 mins. To make up some of the ad revenue lost from going to commercial fewer times in games. Do the same for some of pre and post game as well if necessary. Charge more for ads if you have to.
You would still have TV timeouts for teams calling timeout, injuries on the field, 2 min warning, booth reviews under 2 mins, coaches challenges, end of quarter, end of half. Pregame, halftime, post game.
Too many damn commercials.

Less replay is not "anti-replay.".........and I agree with Pete, it's insane now, everytime something bad happens all the owners cry to the league and demand another rule change, and subsequent replay rule.
It's killing the game IMO. Too many stoppages, too many challenges, too much controversy. That's what Pete is talking about. He loves the gamer of football, and obviously thinks all these new replay rules isn't helping, it's hurting the game he loves.
