The NFL *really* needs to get rid of that 10-second runoff rule. It's just silly, especially since there's nothing the offensive team can do to - prayformojo Oct 20, 04:58 7
- They can if they have a timeout. -- nm - Reagen Oct 20, 05:01 6
  - Right. But I meant that the original decision to stop the clock is the ref's call, not the offensive team's. -- nm - prayformojo Oct 20, 05:03 5
    - No way the offensive team gets set and spikes the ball within 10 seconds. The rule benefits the offensive team imo -- nm - CQ Oct 20, 05:05 4

  - I'm very biased, but the future is looking very very bright in Toronto. -- nm - Shaun Oct 20, 06:12
  - Leafs (unfortunately). I think MacDavid is the best player, but the Leafs have 2 lines of young really good to great forwards -- nm - Beaker Oct 20, 05:31 5
