However, I am of the mindset that less flags are better. They're should be plenty of leeway in football, keeps it more physical and interesting. Flags ruin the game for me

What does "plenty of leeway" even mean?? Doesn't ignoring blatant fouls do more harm to the game though? I mean... using your logic..  Let the Defense play offsides all game. Let them surround the QB and when he hikes it they can just destroy him with no repercussions. Or after the QB has thrown the ball and is out of the play, send a DE to helmet to helmet him and an other crash at his knees. Screw it, right?! LEEWAY BABY! I jest, but dude... Rules are there for a reason. He's clearly offsides, 5 yard penalty. Rules applied fairly and evenly are important in a game, or we no longer have a game.
