Around the NFL...Week 4 Style

[The Goat]

The league wide battle of offense vs defense goes back and forth. Who's to say some defensive genius won't develop a scheme that limits offenses even under the new regime of rules?

[BaltimoreSkins]

I certainly think the defense has the short straw right now and if Orakpo was healthy I'm sure people would've pointed out how he is not getting holding calls. I would like to see a little more leeway for the defense as too much scoring is just as boring as not enough scoring.

I wish the league would revert back to classic NFL. The 6'5 receiver and TE's just can't be covered with rules that are set up to benefit the Offense.

I like 20-17 games much more then 40-37 games.

actually the illegal contact came from P.Manning bitching too much not Brady

I know its for player safety and not the benefit of defense but the practically automatic touchbacks certainly benefit defenses too.

The rule against prohibiting low hits on QBs came after Bernard Pollard took out Brady in 2008.

Not lookin at any stats rite now but if i think durability/ longevity/ and production in todays league i think eli. Like i said not lookin at stats but eli never gets hurt and i see him playing atleast 7-8 more years.

i like your disclaimer, he would have to average 30 tds a season for the next 10 seasons to fall just short of favre
