Onside kick discussion
I brought this up in the MNF thread so I assume it wasn't seen by many.
Teams are going to have to try something different the way onside kicks are done now the odds of recovery is basically zero. I proposed the idea of the kicker just drilling it as hard as he possibly can right at one of the upmen, no way dude is catching it then you get a live ball deflection. Any other ideas out there? |

Honestly - I'd get one of these female college kickers. Would probably be the best approach

One short kick for a woman, one long kick for womankind.

The best fake kick is the Louis Aguilar one where he slapped the ball hard to mimick the kick sound then skied it high like a punt and our receiver just caught it while the other team was waiting to fair catch.
Wouldn’t work on kickoff/onside kick but sure was sweet. https://youtu.be/gj3ewsLu5bI?si=gtkvWoTVbyjRfC8U |

I don't really think there's much that a team can do at this point. Any changes would have to be with the rules. I'm honestly not entirely convinced it's an issue, though. Sure, they're fun when it works, but arguably if you're in the position where you're resorting to that, you probably don't deserve to win anyway.

They need to eliminate the damn thing entirely. It's not only not safe but it's like the old FG attempt. The play is useless bc it almost never works.
Replace it with one of the following: 1. 55 yard FG to get the ball at own 25 ~ opposing team picks which side of the field the kick occurs. 2. Down and 10 from their own 5 yard line. If you get at least 10 yards you get 1st and 10 with the chance to go 85 yards to score

But that rule is problematic because of how some teams would be favored. So good luck getting the other owners agreeing to it.

I do like the idea of just trying to drill somebody with the ball. Even if it doesn't work it's kind of a nice "**** you" to end the game on.
