Kickoff changes passed.

Touchbacks now go to the 30, but it wouldn't surprise me if the average starting position is past the 30 when a return happens, so teams just end up being fine with touchbacks


Wasn't it the 35 with the XFL rules? I'd prefer that as more of a deterrent.

Yes, that's one of the differences.


I wonder how this will affect

1. Avg starting field pos.

2. Total number of game-winning or game-tying FGs compared to previous seasons.

Avg. starting position after a kickoff is also a factor in deciding what to do in a 4th down situation when in field goal range.

Potential turnover on downs on the 5 yard line instead of kicking the FG sounds way better when your opponent would start on the 40 after a kickoff instead of the 15.

Hmmm...sounds like a conspiracy to ensure no one ever questions Dan Campbell's decisions again.

Guess we will see how it goes preseason. Will make some of preseason interesting.

What if they allowed onside kicker to punt straight up in the air? Madness, fun, fun.


Since I’ve kinda used the nfl threads as my personal blog no reason not to keep that up

Tomorrow is my wedding day. Fiancé selected the day before Easter which is hilarious to me for a thousand reasons but not the least of which is a bunch of Christians/Catholics coming with an open bar like are you kidding me I have to wake up the next day at 5 am to place eggs

Downside is I’m going to miss the clempson/Bama game


Who gets up at 5AM to place eggs? Hadn't even thought about the possibility to get up early for that. I'll just do it 10mins before the kids are supposed to look for them.

I'd say congratulations on the rest but I'm married.


Congratulations on the wedding

I hope yo wife know, she got a playa fo life, and that’s no bull****in’


Hey grats man!
You better miss that game or you will never let it down. Turn that phone off.

Isn't the move to not hide any eggs, and then go watch sports while they tire themselves out looking for nothing?


Congrats SRM, don’t wreck any major appliances in the next 24h

All of it?
😉

Congratulations!

If there was ever a reception that I'd like to see candid photos of ...


Have a fun day with your wedding bro. So long as you don’t get stressed, it’s a surreal but highly enjoyable feeling being the centre of attention for everything with all your best friends around

Congratulations. I'd like to chip in and get you a Tivo as a wedding gift.

does the goal line tackle at the end of the first one qualify as a hip tackle or no because he didn't roll up on his legs?

jesus christ srm is getting married
once crucified for a barbwire joke now about to adorn his own ring of thorns
which one is the true three hours of agony, game tonight or vows tomorrow?

this isn't what your parents did, you were just the slow one

That just pisses everybody off.

Instead you keep a couple ones back to place in difficult spots once you realize they're finding the other ones too fast.


The dumbest Easter egg hunt I ever saw was on a baseball field with all the kids being released from the home plate area at one time. And parents cheering and shouting instructions from the bleachers.

Also the most hilarious!


raise your hand if you've seen the ol' 'easter egg in the tailpipe trick'


Thanks guys


Pic from the rehearsal that just finished with everyone rehearsing reception entrance while we’re on the 2nd floor. Fiancé none too pleased my phone was out. Guess I’m definitely missing clempson/Bama
