New Castle,
I hear ya man my 6 1/2 year old boy loves to play, but doesn't like it when his offense is stopped. I've made up rules that I tell him are the "kids rules".
1) When he is on offense he controls the board!
2) He can stop the board whenever he wants for adjustments, defense can adjust too.
3) FOB tackling
4) He gets to audible (angle) any and all eligable WR/RB, whereas the adults defense can only adjust 1 guy.
5) I hold the base of the TTQB for throws (kids get 2 tries) or they can attempt to use sticks
6) Kids get to do kick returns
7) Adults get none of these crutches, only KIDS
8) The games last 1-2 series and then its on to 2 new teams if he wants to keep going.
I look at it as "arcade style" rules. In fact, I enoy it very much because it puts pressure on my D and my O still has to perform to whatever style I'm practicing against. I love it when he plays, and his little friends go crazy for the game when they come over. He can now set up his own plays, knows all the positions, uses strategy...its just so cool to see.
