NFL teams could have an alternative next season to onside kicks, such as this one by the Ravens' Justin Tucker. By Mark Maske Mark Maske Sports reporter covering the NFL Email Bio Follow March 24 at 3:07 PM PHOENIX — When it comes to rule-change proposals, the NFL isn’t much for gimmicks. Owners are a mostly conservative group, and they’re unlikely to give much consideration to any measure that doesn’t take football as seriously as they take themselves and their league.
But it appears that the fourth-and-15 proposal will not be rejected out of hand as some proposals made by teams are. The new rules were put in place before the 2018 season in what amounted to a last-ditch attempt to keep the kickoff from being eliminated entirely. League leaders had called the kickoff football’s most dangerous play. And the new rules seemed to work. Concussions suffered by players on kickoffs were down 35 percent this past season, according to the NFL’s injury data.
The fourth-and-15 proposal, sometimes credited to former Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Greg Schiano, once was considered a potential replacement for the kickoff. A team could have chosen to try for a first down or punt the ball away.
NO COLLUSION!!! Pahahahahahahahahhaahhahahahahahahahahahahahhahahaahahahahahahahahahahahhaahahahahahahhahaahahhahah

Why don't we just eliminate the kickoff, everyone gets the ball at half inch line and the defense plays blindfolded The scores will be like 680-599.
WAPO talking football in the off season since they can't push the Russian conspiracy theory anymore 🤣🤣
yea when the patriots are down 9 in the superbowl with 1 minute left and brady gets a TD the converts on this rule and they kick the game winning FG we will regret this 100%
I like the idea. It would be more dramatic than an onside kick with a better chance of success.

Might as well play in arenas with huge nets and whatnot

Fox News host: Now would be a good time to go buy another AR-15 rifleDemocratic presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke, in a video reiterating his stance on gun control, said that while current AR-15 owners should “keep it” and “continue to use it responsibly,” he sees no reason why new sales should be allowed. Pete Hegseth took issue with him. That's ridiculous. It's ALWAYS a good time, especially if there's a sale going on. More love for the NRA! I wonder how many people have a stash of expensive weapons, but don’t have an emergency fund or enough money saved for retirement.
