Shouldn’t have to notify to allow trick plays still
That’s just it, on side kick is no longer a “trick play” it’s just “a play”…like a two-point conversion
@@seanmartin1684 exactly!! some folks are just destined too be airheads
@@702TifosiGambler nah bro u the airhead.. surprise onside kicks were a bonafide strategy for a long time if you believed in your defense.. nowadays nobody can believe in their defense cause they arent allowed to.
@@thisthresh4248 succes rate wasn’t high enough to justify keeping it around
@@thisthresh4248It can still be a trick play. Letting the ref know doesn’t have to be obvious. Just like when they let refs know the lineman will be eligible
No more surprise onside kicks pretty much defeats the purpose of an onside kick SMH
Uh no. There have been plenty of onside kicks recovered by the kicking team in OBVIOUS onside kick situations. Surprise onside kicks are not that successful and usually result in a penalty for a player being downfield to far or a kick not going far enough.
@@PGO_Gaming The onside kick recovery rate for the kicking team is basically like 5 or 6 percent when the other team is expecting it but when its a surprise it jumps up to a 60 percent recovery rate for the kicking team so what are you talking about?
@@christiansoldier77 I'm not talking about college football sir. Cite the source in which you are receiving your numbers and we can discuss it. The college football number is 60%. THIS AIN'T COLLEGE FOOTBALL.
@@PGO_Gaming NFL success rate for surprise onside kicks is 45% as opposed to 5% for all onside kicks. That's a big difference. Not sure what you're arguing against.
@@bryanflynn2855 Cite source for this statistic.
It was all good until they messed up the onside kick rule. Any comeback that requires an onside kick will boost ratings. That one makes no sense.
Are you new to the NFL? They are 100% regressive and Roger Goodel has made it a point to let fans know that he, nor the league, cares about what you think. I've never seen an entire sport evolve backwards so consistently.
@@Jeepsteve1982 You good man?
@@Jeepsteve1982 cry lol
Just make it flag football already
What? This rule creates kickoffs.
@BraydonKlineStudios no it doesn't
@@BraydonKlineStudiosnah bro, this is garbage
Best comment ever!!!! Its almost there. You get paid millions to play violently. That's why americans love it
Thats like telling the other team you're doing a flea flicker
They are ruining this game
I agree with you, totally!
They're pussifying everything. The game will soon be unrecognizable.
@scottgood7888 psh. You like that 80% of kicks resulted in touchbacks? Encouraging more returns is 'pussifiying' to you? Oook buddy.
@@DWWIIno not just kickoffs
@@DWWIIthe entire game is changing. No more lower hip tackles and every single big hit is a flag.
What a stupid rule change....Keep making NFL Football worse with every Rule change. Completely SUCKS!
In 2069 the game will be played in giant hamster balls.
This isn’t one of those annoying don’t touch players rules this actually brings excitement back to kickoffs.. literally been a grip since there’s been a kick return for a touchdown. Touchbacks were getting to boring and predictable as a fan, they needed to spice it up
@@chrisromesburg1942 they started changing the rules when Devin History was going to win all records.
Lmao nooooo Shit!!!
And each quarter will be shown on a different streaming service. And you will be given an option ( for extra $$)if you want to see touchdowns
ngl that actually sounds pretty cool, i'd watch the hell out of that.
I would’ve just moved the kicker back further
The problem isn’t necessarily the lack of returns like this video is indicating, but the fact that injuries happen disproportionately on kickoffs. That’s why having the 10 players start 5 yards from each other with this new rule is important.
Yea what he said cant count how many people I know that have been concussed on kickoff
Moving the kicker back further wouldn't work. NFL wants to eliminate high speed collisions.
They are doing this to increase the amount of returns and to minimize downfield contact..
They are doing this to increase the amount of returns and to minimize downfield contact..
I'm really tired of these rule changes
Then get some sleep and recover because there's going to be a lot more rule changes over the coming years. Thanks to social media, public outcry over things reaches critical mass in months now versus years in the olden days. The crowd demands changes within a league year. There's also much more money in the NFL nowadays so incentives are much higher now from the league office to keep the money flowing in the right direction. They want more money, hence the ratings need to keep steady or growing. People tune in to see explosive offensive plays and touchdowns. Hence, every inefficiency in the game needs to be tweaked towards more offense. Therefore: expect big rule tweaks on a yearly basis now. The masses need to be entertained. It's no wonder the gladiator spectacle grew from an ordinary theatre show to people without weapons getting eaten by hungry animals in front of crowds of tens of thousands. The needle only moves up.
I know...the entire 60 seconds it takes to absorb this new rule, is so painstaking
Bro this is like the first major change to the game since the 2 point conversion in the 90s what you mean
@@CxDubxU What you mean fool? What about the targeting rules, or the roughing the passer rules, or the overtime changes, or the Dez Bryant catch rule. They sit back and change or tweak rules every season and you acting brand new to what's going on.
@@zeenontharuler5212 those are all just small changes that slightly altered how certain plays are officiated. This new rule changes kickoffs completely and it's never going to be the same again. Fool.
The kickoff part is ok with me now after seeing it, but to notify the other team of any trick plays like onside kick is stupid
I honestly thought that's why they called it Special Teams. Remember the great kick-off returners: Josh Cribs, Devin Hester, Donte Hall, Deion Sanders, Gayle Sayers, etc...
It took talent and skills to be a K.O.R.
The game is watered down now. But not taking anything away from the NFL Player's. It takes guts to put your body through that kind of punishment.
They are doing everything to keep the offensive side of the ball safe, but what about the defensive side.
Right
Great point! Every special teams position:kicker, punter, long snapper (I have personal experience long snapping) returner, gunner,all have a very special and unique skill set.
It does take away from the players. Now how is anyone going to tie the return record for yards on a single return?
It punishes the kicking team which in return will punish the QBs. There will be less yards earned per drive and more touchdowns and in return more lame kickoffs
@@BoldAMATUER i never thought of that. good point I was just agreeing with what he said about those positions having special abilities.
@@BoldAMATUER because I’m a former long snapper lol
Notifying the opposing team of your plan is absolutely ridiculous
The kicker takes out his 7 iron and hopes to hit the green. The returner actually catches the ball, and returns it. Nothing was worse than last year's 22% return rate. A team would score, & you had a 5 minute break to take a dump. This kickoff isn't as exciting as the good old days, but there was still too many touchbacks. The fair catch was unbearable. I think this rule will change the physical composition of the returner. Before a kick returner was a burner that could cut at speed. With this rule, I think that you are going to want more of a thicker Deebo bang through contact arm tackle breaker. It will bring more value to the running back position.
That’s a mighty quick dump!
Commercial after the extra point, kickoff, touchback, another commercial. So much nothing time in the entertainment window lol.
With EVERY SINGLE kick off a touch back i'm happy they finally addressed it. If it doesnt work try something else but as a football fan with a partial brain its fucking boring knowing every kick off is a touch back.
The NFL moved the kickoff to the 35 yard line over a decade ago 'to prevent head injury's'
Simply you can just move it back to the 25 as intended.
This will make a self inside kick way too easy
@@RubensBarrichello. If they move it back to the 25 that will negate the reason they changed it in the first place which was to cause less injuries.
@@cjoin83 Gasp!! You can get hurt playing football
@@RubensBarrichello.what they’re doing now solves both problems the blockers and defenders are only 10 yards apart so they’re not running full speed and slamming into each other. (Causing less injury). And we actually get the excitement of returns agian.
@@seanhagan1435I mean he said less injuries…. It’s quite literally impossible to prevent all injury. But the way things are going they’ll be playing touch football by 2050.
Touchback goes to the 35 wtf??😂
I know. It's ridiculous. The field is 100 yards long but God forbid a team would have to try and go the length of the field. Just terrible. I'm soon gonna be turning it off too. The spirit of the game is being ruined.
THAT'S EXTRA CRAZY
I like that rule. Kicking team will be trying to not have a touchback. Resulting in more returns and more action
Cry more
@@scottgood7888 What's the spirit of the game. The original game consisted of 9-10 guys bunched up right next to each other on the line and running the ball 60 times a game. is that the spirit you miss?
Best explanation I have heard.thank you.
I just saw this while watching a preseason game, I was like, “what the hell was that?” The NFL is continuing to lose viewers, numerous rule changes, Taylor Swift involvement with Travis Kelce, etc.
And with an election year at hand, their veiwership will definitely be lower this season
and too many commercials.... sad.
The ads killed it for me. It feels like your watching commercials more than the game.
I think they'll just keep kicking in the end zone and letting the team have it at the 30 yard line.
35
They have to keep changing the rules because the game is inherently slow and ultra boring
Don’t watch it then
@@Cheese__Man I definitely don't
One of dumber rules changes in my opinion.
The NFL is trying to eliminate collisions from a supposed to be collision sport
Yet they want to add another game to the regular season.
Might as well just start on the 30 and forget the kickoff.
Lol. Its stupid bc they still have to hit. So either way players are getting concussions. Then on the kickoff they make you return it. So what happens when you have no one to block bc your guys are 40 yrs away from you. Thats just free hits. Lol. Ppl talking XFL. Well XFL players dont hit like NFL players. Someone is getting rocked this yr on kickoff. Watch!
This is much better. The fact they were kicking at all after a score was ridiculous. When 80 percent of the kicks were never touched and the other 20 percent barely made it to the 20 yard line, the entire idea of a kickoff was a waste of time. This brings a return man back into play. And for those who hate the idea because change is scary and they get confused as to why, you dont need to catch up. Just watch for a season. If it doesn't help the game, then bitch about it.
That's because the team kicking the ball did not want any recieving team to get yards up the field. This just makes it worse.
Making the game soft.
The onside kick rule change is probably the dumbest rule in NFL. I cant believe that was agreed to...actually, I cant believe it was even brought to the table or up for discussion.
Extremely goofy
If this rule was in place in 2009 the Saints would not have a SuperBowl win right now
Yes, that was only reason they won.
Idiotic! Maybe next they'll shorten the field to 50 yards so each team is scoring 50 plus points a game. These gimmicks slowly erode the fabric of the game.
And the ball will be a Nerf 👍
Next will be flags thank you Roger 🤦🏻🙄
Start the kick off on your on 20-15 depending on the average kick off distance. Downed end zone start on your 10 yard line. You basically need enough time for the catch and time to run. Fare catch ten yard penalty. Try moving the kicking team back
I agree with having the kicking team kick from the 20 again. But with your downed in the end zone rule that’s just gonna make every kick fly to the end zone. Keep everything else the same as it already it
Just stop
This Is embarrassing enough already
You know, I don’t often praise the NFL but this is a decent solution to the touch back epidemic while also increasing player safety. I may be old school but I’m tired of seeing bad injuries on kickoffs. Now they can be fun and safe for the guys out there.
Poor babies who make millions to play a sport might get hurt? Oh the humanity. Keep sucking your thumb.
You can explain it all you want. It is STUPID!!!!!!!!!!
I know I’m getting old but we’re like 2 years away from me not knowing any football rules if they keep changing stuff so much LOL
Pretty soon it will be flag football like they do now in the Pro bowl. Also I bet Football will be on pay per view in the future. Just to watch Thursday night games you have to have Amazon now, Sunday ticket to watch out of market.
@@stevekirby5546 yup they are slowly transitioning while milking everything they can while they can. football just isnt football anymore.
just keep it the same but have the players remove the helmets
Now it’s even easier to score this is dumb af
Did some girl make this up?
I think the new kick off rule is good. More action. But the onside kick rule is not good. Makes it boring.
Few seasons back, one team put in a resolution to have a 4th and 20 play in place of an onsides kick at your own 35yard line
Not sure there is a better way. The kicking team lines up just like before. The receiving team would know what’s coming and likely call a timeout to realign. Either way, the surprise element is gone.
a kickoff doesn't need action lmao
What’s the point in even kicking the ball? You might as well just give the ball to the opposing team at kickoff. This is just dumb.
Yup- - - I agree - why not just start the visiting team at the 20 yard line.
Flag football on the horizon.😜
So there's no point in onside kicks anymore. Not a huge fan of that.
Soooo either the returner is taking it to the house, or you automatically get the ball on at least the 35 yard line?? Hahahaha sounds like scores are gunna be Tripple this year compared to past years
The No Fun League strikes again. During one of the player strike years on the 1980s I watched the CFL on ESPN. Been a fan ever since. They are not changing their kickoff rules. I'll stick with them. A faster and more fun game.
A similar system worked well in the XFL. Incentivized returns and reduced injuries from full-speed collisions. It might take a couple of games to get used to, but it should be a boon for the league going forward.
Agree 💯
💯 Disagree. Full speed contact is what pro football is all about. Every single one of these players is willing to give up physical and mental abilities later in life for a huge payday now. Just look at the contracts
@CAyellowtail This is just straight up insensitive. Every job should do everything to ensure the safety of their employees, regardless of pay
The league that went bankrupt. Lol.
@@CAyellowtailyah let’s have star players go out there and get injured, so we can watch less talented back up players play
Whether or not the rule change is good for the league, only time will tell. However it is good that they are at least trying new things and I definitely think it could be a major improvement, both in play and reducing the number of injuries that occur. Losing surprise onside kicks is a slight bummer, but its a small price to pay for making it more fun and interesting overall.
How about stop changing the rules altogether. There was nothing wrong with the game when it was created and nothing needs to be continuously changed every year like they’re doing now.
How will onside kicks work
🤡
Guess there are none anymore.
are you too stupid to watch the video?
Onside kicks will be only allowed in the 4th quarter
@@tyler_trippin2370Dang so if your down a couple scores in the 3rd, trying to come back
Worst rule ever
I got an idea to still make surprise onside kicks possible. Instead of having the players at the other 35, make it a hybrid. 2 offensive players lines up with the kicker, and 2 defensive players cover them. Then the rest of 8 offensive players and 8 defensive players lines up on the other 35. The players lined up with the kicker can move immediately after the ball is kicked. The players at the other 35 can only move after the ball is caught. The possibility of injury is still very low in this set up. High speed collisions can really only occur between the 2 offensive players lined up with the kicker and the returner. But this set up still allows for surprise onside kicks because there are 2 offensive players and 2 defensive players who can battle it out near the kicker.
Kickers will have to have skill.. not just leg strength.. placement kicking.. and the returns gotta catch the pop fly... this will be interesting lol.. best blocking scheme wins...
They should've just kept it as it was
No one wants to see a touch back every play. There were 2,000+ touchbacks. Boring. At that point don’t even have kickoffs & start at the 20 every time.
They literally said it was this rule change or getting rid of the kickoff because of how boring it was.
@@xJ44x I mean fair enough lmaoo
You mean like 10 years ago???
They need to keep the NFL as OG as math. How math abstractly explains the rules of the universe, the OG great rules of the NFL should not change, it will not remain to be the NFL. It will become
The “NNFL” - NOT the National Football League. Pshhhhhhhhh.
I feel like teams are just going to kick it out still. Too much risk kicking into the landing zone with too little time to really prepare for this big of a change.
That’s a 15 yard difference with no return. 10 yards more than the previous touchback. In a game where starting field position is key, kicking it out the back of the end zone is a bad idea unless the other team has one heck of a good returner.
🏳️🌈
So if I was a Coach I'd tell my players to stand at the 5 yd line and go no further back. Let the ball land within the 5 and I'll take my chances it rolls into the end zone. Don't even risk catching the ball within the 5. I wouldn't even bother to catch it if I was in the end zone. NOTHING GOOD CAN COME FROM TRYING TO CATCH THE BALL WITHIN THE 5. Sure, maybe I get caught starting at the 2...but very rarely. In my opinion, ST coaches have kick return strategy all wrong. Screw what the NFL wants teams to do. How many times have the Titans muffed the catch in the last few years?
Vegas will start showing every players cards during a poker game from now on. I mean, seriously, what is the point of an onside kick, if you can't surprise the other team?
I guess next year they'll start letting The other team know when a fake punt will go down. Stupid.
I see it happening sort of like baseball where they don’t even have to pitch to intentional walk. The team won’t even have to kick if they don’t want to and just give it to them at the 35.
I can't say that I like it. The returner should have the option to not return the kick if he doesn't like what he sees, without being penalized. The NFL should have the same rules as college fb.
I guess the first part is acceptable as an experiment. But having to announce an onside kick ?!?! Batshit crazy
NFL should just adopt all CFL standards. much better field, faster action. more action. NFL, just dumb...
It's the worst thing the league has done.There's no opportunity to get a touchdown.
Im done watching football,, just can't take how boring it is,, wven qhen the nfl has the teams fight,, like WWE wrestling to be able to say how much more violent then the 80s footbal this is today,, derrrrr,, nfl aucks and it has sucked for a while now,, but now i can't watch,, i just can't,, i tried to force myself, but couldn't do it to myself,, this just SUCKS! Dont wear equipment,, it's not needed
Why even Kick off? Start at the 27.5 yard line.
MY GOD, The US tax laws are simpler!! No more surprise onside kicks and MANDATED returns?! This is the dumbest rule change in any sport I've seen in a long time.
Nfl is entertainment not a sport! Simce 2010 or further back,, WWE is also not a sport,,, it is,,, entertainment
I am sick of the NFL.. I havent watched since they change the QB fumble rule, the hitting rules and I damn sure will not watch now... Stop destroying the game
This rule makes football suck that much more, nothing you say will change how much this SUUUUUUCKKS
OK.. .this is F'n stupid... this really puts limits the kickoff and returns... No surprise on side kicks anymore??? No wedge??? What's next??? You must declare if it's a run or pass before the ball is snapped on offense???? They are ruining the game with all these stupid rules...
I'm sure CBS approves of these changes but these NFL kickoff rule changes sissify the league make the NFL the National Sissy League (NSL) and are a camel's nose under the tent, meaning more to come. Like no more tackles just pulling flags from opposing player carrying the ball (flag football like in grade school), no more heavy blocks at the line of scrimmage with players just standing up to get in the way but no touching. And finally, once all of that is in place, women have to be allowed to play all positions in NSL football to completely 'woke' the sport.
Most of the times they’re not going to return it. The teams that has decided to return most of the times they got tackled before reaching to the 30 yard line. So why not just do a touchback and start at 30. If the league really wants team to return more kickoffs move it back to 20 yard line then we’ll have teams always deciding to run it back.
First 2 weeks of preseason. Kickoffs become BORING! If player safety is the big concern why don't they just dress them in inflatable suits. At least it would be funny
I could see dclaring an onsides to instead doing a fair play. We're only looking at it one way, pretty much declaring an onside kick is like declearing a formation. There may be entire plays centered around declearing an onside kick.
It would be like setting up for a field goal but running it in instead. Thats how imagine coaches would use it.
Am i for this idrk, but i can see the potential.
What a stupid rule. The NFL should do what the Cdn Football League does. The kicking game is important and the rules protect the players. The NFL's new rule is ridiculous.
Why even bother with the kickoff. Save some time and just give them the ball at the 35 yd line
This maybe good but watching on the tell just seems a waste of time
Why fix something that ain’t broken
I think we all as fans need to put our foot down and boycott the NFL. They have taken away so much out of this game and if we continue to sit quietly and watch them rip it apart… by the time they are done messing with it…. It’s gonna be unrecognizable and totally fake.
I can’t believe people who love this game…. F the NFL… I’m talking about this game. Jim Thorpe is rolling in his grave right now for what this commissioner is doing to this sport. ROGER GOODELL needs to go. And who ever in the rules committee and in the players association agrees with GOODELL they also need to go.
This isn’t the football I played in the 90s… it’s a pansy powderpuff wwf side show. I don’t understand why nobody has stepped up to this bastard commissioner and told him that’s enough.
If you have love for this sport than you must boycott the NFL. Don’t watch its games don’t by your team gear until they restore some of what they took out of this game or ask for Roger GOODELL to be fired. I can’t believe people like Jerry jones allow this crap. They are from the old school and if I were in their shoes…. It would be over my dead body that they change this game so much:.. I know Al Davis wouldn’t be quiet. He would be furious…. If we continue to let this fool do as he wishes with this game…. Soon it won’t be football anymore. I ain’t buying anything nfl nor am I watching the games. It’s time to put our foot down. We pay to see football not the WWF. You aren’t paying for football and you’re paying for entertainment.
What they should of done is changed it to the way it originally was, but place the ball on the 25 yard line for the kicker to kick off to the opposing team's return man. If the ball ends up in the end zone and out, causing a touchback, that ball then should be placed on the 20 yard line and not the 25. Over rewarding and cheap the way it is currently 😒
That 40 yard issue,.. Sucks 😔
This change takes away the excitement of the kick off. Just another reason for me to stop watching. I hope the NCAA is not following this same stupid change so I can enjoy football. It's as dumb as intentionally grounding the ball to stop the clock. Let em play and hit each other.
Just start off the game at the 20 yard line - - - odd rule - I understand why due to collisions - but it's a CONTACT sport. Also - I think they should wear those HUGE padded helmets.
The NFL isnt a football league anymore. It's a woman's basketball league where the players can jump.
The NFL has made hundreds of bad rule changes. This is by far the worst and will not last the full season.
Smh it’s called FOOTBALL….nothing was wrong with kickoffs…special teams is a part of the sports🤦🏾♂️teams can scheme on kickoffs like the ravens do.. they build a wall towards their sideline..the NFL makes Changes to Bs
Kicking balls are not the same as game balls, make the kicking balls where they cant be booted out of the end zone, amd go back to 20 yard line tb's. Simple. This is just getting people ready for flag football
Wilson Christopher Rodriguez Thomas Robinson Michael
Pineapple might taste good on pizza but at that point is it really pizza? Now, about the "new" kickoff...
Whoever came up with these new rulings for the kickoff needs to pull their head out of their back side ... they definitely have fertilizer for brains
So if it hits the landing zone then rolls to the end zone, it’s placed on the 20…I’m about to have my kicker work on sending darts that’ll roll back. No kicking in the air for him to catch.
Rule has backfired. Kickers are opting to kick out of the end zone. Rather give a touchback and ball on the 30 than let other team return and chance to score.
That's awfuL
U can't just change the rules ro the number 1 sport in the world because someone thought they were smart it's been this way since the first NFL game leave it be!!!!!!!¡
Seems like it would be obvious when the kicking team lines up on their own 35… no way to hide it with the new dynamic kickoff lineup rules anyway. The loud-mouths just avoid that obvious fact and whine for clicks.
With the 12th man teeing up theball for a kick-off, it's more like kicking a field goal than just a using teed up ballthis affect the kickers' mechanics, as opposed to regular past kickoffs?
The whole thing is dumb. The reasoning behind makes sense, but it seems like it was concocted by non-football executives.
some advice..a lot of us don’t know jack about xfl rules; i’m not the brightest bulb, etc…slow the cadence. thanks for the effort
Why not tell the opposing team what play you're calling while you're at it? People who make these rules are possibly some of the dumbest!
Gonzalez Ronald Thompson Cynthia Rodriguez Jennifer
Eliminate touchbacks.. problem solved. If a team kicks a ball past the end zone. They have to re-kick.
The kickoff rule is fine. But the onside should have been left alone 👍🏿
with the entire team other than the kicker 35 yards downfield, how would the on-side kick work?
Should be a penalty called for showing video in portrait mode....lol
