Penalty Fix

[tallglassowater]

They need to fix the penalty situation. The game is already in such big favor of the offense they should do something to even the playing field a little bit. For example...

The offense can have 5 holding penalties in a row on say 3rd down. Now it is like 3rd and 60. Now there is a defensive holding 2 yards off the line and it is an automatic first down for the offense. How is this fair? Sure, you can say that without the hold/PI/illegal contact/wrinkling Megatron's shirt.... they get a TD or big play. But can't you say the same the other way around?

Watt beats his man and is coming for a huge sack but he gets held. They go back 10 yards, but the big play for the defense is now saved. They get to have that down over again. Even though it is a disadvantage they still get that down over again. With the frequency of **** calls going against the defense and the rules constantly being implemented to help the offense, 1st and 20 isn't the worst thing in the world. But if Watt isn't held he gets a sack. Maybe they lose only 5 yards, but also they lose the down. Maybe he forces a fumble or something along those lines.

I don't think it would work because it would happen too often, but my question is this... should they have more loss of down penalties against the offense?

EDIT: this was not thought out, it was more of a rant I guess...

Offense is the cash cow they will bias towards offense its that simple.

I agree with Ya tall. It's getting even more rediculous. The lions got shafted today.
