I’m guessing it’d be similar to a 2pt conversion. If called for offensive penalty on the play, they take the yardage and can kick the XP further back or retry the conversion further back.

For this scenario, retry the play further back for 4th and 25 or standard kickoff from the 25 yard line

That would be my guess as well. Seems like there are a lot of details that would need to be hammered out in order to prevent any sort of abuse. I just heard this morning the play would be an untimed down. Sort of preventing a defensive coach from bleeding the clock with the play.

This is all for Player safety, right? Fuck, man.

Just replace the kickoff with a punt.

I haven’t seen any motions to get rid of punts.

With the same play, You maintain the duality of element of an exciting TD return as well as element of surprise with a fake punt. Hell, makes it exciting with possibility of a punt block, too.

Instruct the WR to be more aggressive with push off and secure the 1st down.

If you’re called for offensive PI, then just do regular kickoff.

NFL scraps sky judge plans, tweaking onside kick alternatives

[jwplayer mZCFoZKY-ThvAeFxT] The league has already done away with their pass interference reviews, after on-field officials thumbed their nose at the now-one-year implementation. After an egregio…

Teams will be allowed to use this alternative twice a game regardless of the score. What’s important to remember, though, is that all normal rules will apply to the play. If the defense commits holding or pass interference, it’s an automatic first down for the offense. However, if the offense is penalized, they can’t elect to kick the ball off afterward. They would have to try the alternative play from the new line of scrimmage in order to keep possession.

That’s some horseshit there. More fodder for the conspiracy theorists.

How do you exploit that, tho? Either the defense commits a penalty, or they don't. Either the refs call it, or they don't.

I’m not a fan of the ‘must-declare’ nature of this option. I like the element of surprise with the onsides kick.

I’d rather have a regular or slightly variant version of a punt from your own 40 yard line with something like defense must have minimum eight players on line of scrimmage (or within five yards of line of scrimmage) at time of snap.

I'd rather just go back to the old onside/kickoff rules.

Me too, they are ruining the game.

Obviously, but too dangerous, per the powers that be, so not an option.

What’s a safer alternative?

Speaking of which, itd be hilarious if the Redskins were renamed the Rednecks. I might even root for them.

That would be cultural appropriation, at least DC used to have Redskins in that area

Probably a good thing for the Browns.

Over paid. Over rated.

NFLN showing Seahawks vs 49ers. Where does this rivalry rank all-time?

Higher than Bears/Packers or any NFC North/Central rivalry, yeah. Rarely do those contests have any significance other than local yokel talk.

Higher than Ravens/Steelers? Hmmm.

Nothing close to Cowboys/Redskins of 70s early 80s, but definitely better than us the last 30 years

Better than Cowboys/Eagles last ten years? I’ll say ‘no’

Chiefs/Raiders hasn’t been shit in decades.

Seahawks - 49ers is way too new to count for anything. The 49ers have also mostly sucked.
