How about this rule?
If a player on a particular team gets injured, that team reserves the right to abandon the gane without penalty

Get rid of the onside kick. Not just because it’s incredibly dangerous, but also bc it’s boring and it seems like it’s converted only 18% of the time, but that counts teams doing kickoffs this way so it’s really probably around 10-12% for true onside kick situations at the end of the game.
A few ideas for alternatives:
The success rate for 3rd and long on average is probably around 30ish %, of course for the Chiefs it’s damn near 50. Don’t tell me that wouldn’t make the games more fun

If the other team's kicker is on, entire halves or more of Chiefs games would go by without Mahomes even getting a drive. |

Completely agree. This is the thread winner by a large margin. People always say it would ruin the game cause DBs would constantly commit DPI on purpose. But given it's how college works and it works FINE, far better, proves that's a baseless concern.
Name me one big college game decided on a controversial intentional DPI to prevent a touchdown. I will respond with one NFL game decided on a DPI that effectively awarded a free touchdown. My list would be real long and I'm not sure a list could even be created against me. |
