New kickoff rules

[Blaming Brad]

So what are your thoughts on the new rules? I can't help but wonder if teams like the Lions with top-end speed guys like Jamo (or even Gibbs) will benefit, especially given the rule removes some of the injury risk of putting guys like that in there under the previous rule.

On the surface, I like it. Haven't thought too much about it to dislike it, but given the chance to have a return game instead if a touch back sounds OK to me

i like it but there will be a lot of TD returns. a speedster wont have many to outrun. should be fun though. get jamison williams back there.

seems like a weird rule. I might actually watch the XFL (guess it is called UFL now) this weekend to see it in action.

wonder how many runner on kicker duels this will bring, might need to get kickers built like linebackers.

Guess the new UFL decided that they wanted to go backwards and move the kickoff back. Weird the rule changes from year to year in these faux leagues.

I think it's a CFL adaption, not ufl...but I could be wrong

No opinion, until I see how it effects the games.
