I'm a much bigger fan of the NFL then CFL. Mostly due to talent and defensive nature of the game. CFL is very offensive oriented, and it doesn't have as good defense as NFL more so because of talent rather then size and passing nature of the game due to the lack of a down. Technically, defense should be better for the CFL due to defending only 3 downs instead of 4.

I was never a fan of the no yards rule on kick returns. It's a pretty dumb rule and doesn't seem to have that much of an effect on receivers having space since it's flaged so much. That rule can be triggered completely accedental and is offended so many times. I think it would be better off to have fair catch or find an alternative rather then keep it the way it is.
