Re: Offseason: Around the NFL
love the 4th and 15. onside kick is dead. but 4th and 15 would make it way more fun and exciting.

Re: Offseason: Around the NFL
Like to see the percentages to compare. But thinking if you Have a good receiver, throwing it up to him just to get a flag might be the better play.

Re: Offseason: Around the NFL
Just bring back the old rules for onside kicks, because right now the play is practically dead

If you want to do a surprise onside kick you can do it respecting the new kickoff rules (balances formation not running start etc...), and if you want to say "we're going onside kick" (ie. when the situation is obvious) you're allowed to do it the old way because it's not a dangerous play. Because I understand the need to fix it but I absolutely 100% hate the 4th and 15 rule, leave that video game sh*t for the XFL or whatever new spring league will want to have a try at it.

Re: Offseason: Around the NFL
In terms of the onside kick the current rule is awful. The kicking team might as well take a knee. I like the 4th and 15 because at least there is a chance. I would prefer the old rules. One of the ballsiest plays I remember was the kick off of the second half of super bowl 44.

Re: Offseason: Around the NFL
see I think teams found the secret near the end of last year. Something along the lines of kick straight at the opposing teams player like a hot potato, your team knows where the ball is going and if the receiving team player doesn't hold on it becomes a melee with both sides having an equal chance. If not that then have a 5 players designated for a rugby scrum!!!

Re: Offseason: Around the NFL
I wonder what causes the Game Pass link? I have to use an ad blocker because of data capped internet. I even used different browsers with no luck.

Drew Brees is taking a lot of flack from the entire sports community for his stance on kneeling during the anthem (hint: he disapproves).
