I kind of agree with Shabby about giving the coach the decision at all times when to punt or not, but I do see the problem if you allow that. There are guys out there who pass so well and have such a good defensive team that they will never punt. This will lead to them racking up more points against weaker competition....and they will pour it on. I can see guys running for a few downs in an effort to get those running stats up and then going to the air on 4th to convert....since they never miss a pass. That demoralizes rookies and folks who are in it more for fun than winning at all costs. I understand, that is reality....but aren't we trying to grow the hobby? I like the LAEFL rules on this...you can go for it on your side of the field if you are behind and in the 4th quarter....and that is fairly realistic. I think you can always go for it on the opponent's side of the field.

I also hate the rules that restrict stuff like the bigger ball (pill), # of boat bases, # of cover corners....etc. If it can be made, then it can be countered. Does the opponent have plenty of boat bases? Guess you need more cover corners. Does the opponent pass all the time? Guess you need a D-line with their hands up. Can't cover his receivers? Time for guys to back peddle or spin around in zone positions....etc, etc. I do understand weight, height, proportion restrictions though. I have seen some figures that look like they are 9 feet tall in scale, or weigh 500 pounds. That is just ridiculous.
