I can't get past the 3 downs. Having only two plays to get 10 yards just seems unfair to me. I don't think I could articulate properly why, it just seems incorrect.
There's lots of exciting things the offence can do though. Like 1 yard between lines (not the width of the ball) so QB sneaks are more successful. Full motion for everyone in the backfield (a running start for receivers!) & a wider field.
It keeps the game rolling, with more punts in a game (11 vs 7.5) and no "fair catch" at all! But a 5 yard buffer to catch it in.
BUT major rule changes next season to make it "more appealing to Americans" 😣
CFL Football is better anyhow 😸 We Canadians invented it after all... y'all perfected it though.
However? They decided to change some CORE elements of why CFL was good! It's likely to be a disaster next season, oh well!
