Eagles want to eliminate the onside kick
And I hope it eventually happens. A 4th and 20 was proposed. Probably 4th and 10 or 15 would be perfect since the onside kick almost never works.

Changes to kickoffs have made it so that the kicking team recovers it about 3.2% of the time instead of 13.2% of the time as it was before. That's more than significant.
A 4th and 20 conversion is around 7% while 4th and 15 is around 21%. I'd say it's not that bad of an option if we're being realistic about it. |

This rule change would favor Mahomes over any other team. I'm all for it.

I don't like this at all because of the penalty factor. Makes the conversion way more likely to happen than it should be.

Can’t tush push for 20 yards, not sure why they would propose that idea.

Does work comp pay a players salary when they are out for injury. Would it free up space to trade say if your rt got hurt heading into the playoffs so you trade for on the tail end of a contract?

The Eagles can **** right off.
I hear the Bills are proposing a rule change that every kick that goes wide right is worth 4 points. Stop screwing with the kicking game. there's nothing wrong with the foot part of football. |

Does the NFL even want special teams anymore? Seriously, what does everyone have against the onside kick?

Just leave it alone and quit with the rule changes.
