Where do we stand on the new kickoffs?
What’s your plan for the new kickoffs?

It looks like there are going to be opportunities to break big returns on every kickoff. I think I'd just touchback it every single time. Maybe.
Either way, I'm not a fan of it. |

So far during all preseson games the average starting field position has been at the 28. I say give it a go to get below that. I'f we can't beat that consistently just kick on out and start at the 30 to prevent any huge plays.

Overall, I like them. Obviously, there’s going to be somewhat of a learning curve, and some returns are going to be fugly, but way better than endless touchbacks. Even saw one returned for a TD yesterday.

I should have put this in the OP. I saw a stat about the kickoffs that was interesting. I’m preseason the team with the longest kickoff return avg was the Chiefs.

Almost always kick it out of the endzone. If it was the 35 instead of the 30 maybe I would feel differently but we are too good of a team to give other shitty teams chances to beat us by fluke returns.
If we are winning in the 2nd half. Always and I mean always kick it out of the endzone. Don't even think about it. |

Get rid of kickoffs.
A team starts on the 25 at each possession. Last edited by Gary Cooper; 08-25-2024 at 06:23 PM.. |

If there are no kickoffs, when are teams doing onside kicks?

**** that. Naked blindfolded team thumb wrestling is where it's at. I mean, if we're really going to cry this much about kickoffs and how we should just get rid of them, let's go all the way off the reservation and make it as arbitrary/nonsensical as possible. ![]()

The benefit of my proposal will be felt by all. Create new jobs, form unions, midget mascot merch, more time in the seats to order more ridiculously priced beers and hotdogs, and more community outreach by the midget community. It’s a win-win. |

I don't understand the question. What do you mean by final plan? I don't think teams are going to pick one of the listed options and simply do that for every kick.
