If Schiano wants to improve player safety, how about not telling his D-line not to lunge at the knees of the opposing players when the game is essentially over? |

**** it, replace onsides kick situation with a rugby scrum (or ruck) with the same rules. Place the ball dead center of the 50 and let them maul it out. Once a side gets the ball they get to advance it as far as they want, then resume normal play rules.

Heard a guy on the radio make a great point.
You know why they'll never get rid of kickoffs? Because of commercials. As it stands now... TD!, extra point... Commercial Kickoff.... Commercial. Finally back to play. |

That's silly. 4 minutes of commercials instead of 2.

Other than "it's always been this way" why does anyone care about kickoffs?

They should change the kickoff back to the way it was and have the kick off team start further back from where the ball is kicked from!
If they want to make drastic changes then they should implement under 5 minutes after each play the clock stops whether they are in bounds or not. I am sick of seeing games that are finished in the last 5 minutes because the other team can run out clock and in some instances take a penalty to waste time for an advantage. |

There is simply no good reason to get rid of it.
