Baker cheerfully welcoming his former coach to the division...
Clearly, Baker still has some growing up to do..... I have read many articles that Stefanski and Baker were not on same the wavelength. It has been written that Stefanski went to Berry and told him he could not work with Baker and that was the first domino that led to Deshawn Watson. It was telling what Stefanski did to Baker on the Monday night game against Pittsburg. I'm no Baker fan I think Stefanski was dead on in his assessment that Baker is not a QB that you can win a super bowl with. Stefanski wanted Kirk Cousins and now he will be coaching Kirk Cousins again. I wonder what Stefanski will think of Penix. That could get interesting.

IMO the rules need to change.
I am tired of 40 yard pass plays that get the PI call.
Call a fifteen yard penalty and first down. So many of the calls are judgement calls.
That game on one play they don't call it then they do call it on two plays.
The last play where the guy threw his helmet. He was right there was no PI.
Who wouldn't commit a 15 yard penalty to prevent a TD or 40-50 yard gain? I know this won't be popular, but I'm actually in favor of a tier system. This, of all penalties (maybe in any sport) is the most subjective. One more layer won't kill it. Have a spot variety for an egregious offense and a simple 10yd penalty for those of the incidental variety. This also gives humans and human nature a chance to correct itself after the fact; when they huddle-up or from the booth. One may say this complicates the game more; I say I'm tired of seeing too many games ruined and it's worth it. Your suggestion would be quite popular with me. The staple of every NFL offense should include chucking it up deep looking for the DPI...it's become ridiculous. I'd add to your suggestion looking at a 5 yard defensive holding penalty that is an auto 1st down. Too many 3rd & 15 ish where a D Lineman gets called for a ticky-tack hold that results in a 1st down.
