whatdrought Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 Is there actual evidence that kickoffs result in more injuries than any other play? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virgil Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 What percentage of them come on kickoffs? The opening kickoff is such a mainstay of the game. It’s the opening pitch, the face off, and tip off. I just cant imagine football without it 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just another part of the beginning of the end of the NFL as you currently know it. I honestly think that in 30 to 40 years you won't recognize the game at all -- if it even exists anymore.

Stank_Nasty Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 I still hate the fact that they moved the kickoff up 5 yds. basically rendering the dang thing obsolete anyways. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really. Plenty of teams kick high and short of the goal line knowing there's a good chance the KOR won't make it to the 25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay_Fixit Posted March 28, 2018 Share Posted March 28, 2018 As if kickoffs matter anymore. People need to stop complaining. They’re only really useful if an onside is needed. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to see the numbers of kicks being returned for tds since the rule change as opposed to before that. rarely do you fear a return anymore no matter who is back there fielding it. that wasn't the case years ago.... I get it. I understand why they did it...... but I hate it. 4 minutes ago, Jay_Fixit said: As if kickoffs matter anymore. People need to stop complaining.
