Does anyone else think that the method the NFL currently uses for PI yardage makes sense? Yes, it's kinda fun to get random 50 yard penalties, but it's also illogical. Many games are won and loss by these calls, which hurts the integrity of the game.
Nobody knows if the pass would be completed, so how can they justify giving so many yards for a foul? I have an idea that makes more sense.
They already have enough stats to instantly calculate the probability of completing a pass on any part of the field. So, they can use this data to determine the correct yardage to give the team when the experience a PI.
For example, if the pass is 20 yards and the probability to complete the pass is 50%, then give them 10 yards. It seems pretty obvious and simple to me.
What do you guys think?
