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. |

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. Sent from my GM1915 using Tapatalk |

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.

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.

Yes, the current rule proposal can make for some interesting end-of-first-half situations for a confident team. Currently, the proposal would limit each team to two chances per game to retain possession by doing a 4th and 15 from their own 25. A confident team might make going for it when they scored late in the first half a matter of routine. Heck, if there are only a few ticks left, it's practically a free chance to go for a Hail Mary, because the current proposal would start the play clock at the snap. The NFL hasn't really thought through all the angles on this, yet, but I suspect that they'll be able to come up with some tweaks and make this work. |

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

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.
