MAJBobby Posted February 8, 2020 Author Share Posted February 8, 2020 I like this Kick Off a lot more than NFL. Still get some returns and it seems safer for the player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never heard of it, how does that work? I still don't have a great grip on the rules of it, but the basic gist is that there's four goalposts at each end; you want to get the ball between the middle two goalposts (6 points). The outer goalposts are 1 point so the defense will sometimes purposefully put the ball through their own outer goalpost to sacrifice 1 point instead of allowing 6. You move the ball in one of three ways: (1) dropkicking it to a teammate, (2) punching the ball to a teammate, and (3) dribbling the ball (and keep in mind it's shaped like a rugby ball so not super easy). And it's played on a field roughly twice the size of an NFL field. Here's a highlight video: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True skill returner could really be a game changer like a Dante Hall. I think it creates a little strategy for coverage as well. Some attack and some dropping back, if the returner gets through that first wave it’s a touchdown. I haven’t seen anyone really dropping back yet they all seem to engage right away. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You never hear the Tv analyst gushing about how Seattle taking their FG off the board after roughing the kicker, cost fans the over and Seattle covering the spread 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except in the 2Min comeback period. Then the ball stops after every play. I like that too because it keeps the entire field still in play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My expectations versus what happened I thought it was fantastic. I expected worse tackling and less pass offense.

Basically burn through the BS and extend the excitement, makes sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
