I watched highlights of a couple of games on YouTube. Only being able to rush 5 seems like an odd rule, but it's probably to promote more scoring. Only 2 point conversions adds an interesting dynamic to the scoring as well.
I don't have a problem with no kickoffs, as most kickers can kick the ball out of the endzone pretty much anytime they want to nowadays anyway. The onside kick being a 4th and 12 from your own 28 didn't come up in either of the games I watched, but it could be interesting.
The play was a little sloppy from the highlights I saw, but that's to be expected from new franchises. Obviously the talent is a little worse overall than the NFL, but the games seemed interesting enough. We will have to wait and see how it plays out to see if it has any long term viability.

The biggest thing that stood out to me was a lot of dropped balls on pretty much perfect passes. Other than that, I liked it more than the thought of watching a baseball game.
I watched all 3 games this weekend and enjoyed them. The refs let them play and a couple QBs got absolutely housed and there were no flags. One QB got hit so hard it knocked his helmet off. No penalty.
I also liked how they televised the replay official and his communications with the on field referee.
The one thing I noticed is nobody could run the ball effectively. I don't think I saw a run for more than 10 yards all weekend.
With their partnership with CBS and the NFL, I think this league is going to make it.

Rodgers must have changed his mind. I don't see him on any of the rosters.. At one time he was playing
5 man rush rule was smart. With them only having a couple weeks to prepare and get the offensive lines together. It would have been a crap fest if they needed to recognize blitz packages and things
