Subject: NFL change that may happen.

Dude What.

TIME sat in on meeting between Goodell and Rich McKay, head of the NFL's powerful competition committee. Goodell brought up a proposal promoted by Greg Schiano, coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers: after a touchdown or field goal, instead of kicking off, a team would get the ball on its own 30-yard line, where it's fourth-and-15. The options are either to go for it and try to retain possession, or punt. If you go for it and fall short, the opposing team would take over with good field position. In essence, punts would replace kickoffs, and punts are less susceptible to violent collisions than kickoffs.source

For those that watch American football, how do you feel about this?


NOTE - This is not known when this will take effect, if it even does.

That makes no sense.

Might as well give the players flags and play flag football.

That's a pretty radical change.

Sounds cool.

Congratulations. You're literate!

No, that's retarded.

"You are the last of your kind: bred for combat, built for war. You're the master of any weapon, pilot of any vehicle, and fear no enemy"

That makes no sense. Goodell should have vetoed it when it hit his desk.

  • 12.06.2012 4:46 PM PDT

That's so stupid.

Es ist Zeit für einige Gefahr-pay

No.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

I would prefer the kickoff, so no thank you.

Don't judge a book by its cover, unless it has bacon on the cover, then it is a good book.

Schiano is an amazing coach. Not sure why he would ask for this. he was great at Rutgers.

This HAS to be satire. No one is that retarded.

I have a banana booty!

Why would he do this? To prevent injuries? Every single play has the potential to be very dangerous. Taking away the kickoff is just stupid.

I don't like it.

It would eliminate the on-side kick. The kick off?

Ridiculous.
