Do we have time to run WASP?
 

One of the new rule proposals....

The proposal that would give teams another option instead of an onside kick permits a team to maintain possession of the ball after a score by substituting one offensive play. The kicking team would attempt a fourth-and-15 from its 25-yard line. This could be done a maximum of two times per game.

Onside kicks have become infrequent — and hardly ever successful — since the NFL changed rules on alignments for kickoffs.

Our record last year was otherworldly in those situations , no way AFC west teams vote yes.

LOL, Championship for the next 20 years.

If they do this, they should put the ball on the 15. A conversion puts it on the 40+, assuming there is no penalty on the defense. Make them earn it.

As long as Patrick Mahomes is my team’s QB I fully support this rule change.

I'd rather just change back to the old kickoff rule. First, as a football traditionalist, but also, even though we're the beneficiaries today, in the long run, we won't always be.

Imagine being down 21, scoring, defense is a bit tired, score again, they are drained, and then tie it up...

Perfect scenario is where we score before the half with about 45 seconds left, do this fourth down conversion thing, score, then get the ball to start the second half. With Mahomes, you do that every time you can. Yeah, I don’t see this one making it after the way Mahomes dominated long yardage situations on 3rd downs.

4th and 15? LMAO They should at least make it challenging.

wow, make it take it rules

NFL setting up for a super epic Mahomes comeback game

After the SB, there was a statistic being discussed on most sports shows that in 3rd and at least 15, Mahomes has a career passer rating of almost 100, and the NFL average in that down and distance was less than 10.

Before the playoffs, there was a stat about 3rd and 18 or more, and the rest of the NFL picked up the first down only 8% of the time. Mahomes was 10 of 11 for almost 21 yards per attempt, with five first downs, three touchdowns and a perfect passer rating of 158.3.

I think defenses will be watching for Wasp. It should be fun to see Andy exploit their anticipation for it.

just a few years back, 4th and 15 with Alex, you're better off rolling the dice with the traditional on-side kick. 4th and 15 for Alex, might as well have been 4th & 75.



amazing having a stud QB.

It ain’t gonna happen but I agree.

I've thought this so many times. 3rd and 7 or more, Colquitt better have been loose.
