It looks like there are going to be opportunities to break big returns on every kickoff. I think I'd just touchback it every single time. Maybe.
Either way, I'm not a fan of it. |

So far during all preseson games the average starting field position has been at the 28. I say give it a go to get below that. I'f we can't beat that consistently just kick on out and start at the 30 to prevent any huge plays.

Overall, I like them. Obviously, there’s going to be somewhat of a learning curve, and some returns are going to be fugly, but way better than endless touchbacks. Even saw one returned for a TD yesterday.

I should have put this in the OP. I saw a stat about the kickoffs that was interesting. I’m preseason the team with the longest kickoff return avg was the Chiefs.

Almost always kick it out of the endzone. If it was the 35 instead of the 30 maybe I would feel differently but we are too good of a team to give other shitty teams chances to beat us by fluke returns.
If we are winning in the 2nd half. Always and I mean always kick it out of the endzone. Don't even think about it. |

Get rid of kickoffs.
A team starts on the 25 at each possession. Last edited by Gary Cooper; Yesterday at 06:23 PM.. |

I don't understand the question. What do you mean by final plan? I don't think teams are going to pick one of the listed options and simply do that for every kick.

Apparently threw all of preseason the new kickoff changes starting field position by 4 yards...
A bunch of teams are just going to blast the ball threw the end zone with that data. |

I don't like the new kickoff rules at all.
But nobody gives a shit what I think... So it is what it is. |

Undecided.
If butt kicker has figured out the best way to kick it and he's more capable of doing it like that than anyone else, I'll probably like it enough. |
