Onside Kicks

[coltsfeva]

  They tabled the “4th and 15” option for teams coming from behind.
   If the elimination of a running start is what the problem is, why can’t they just allow the kicking team 2 or 3 extra yards, so they have a better chance to get to the ball? I may be oversimplifying the issue but to me, it makes more sense than the 4th and 15 option.

 

   Thoughts?

i like the new rule better than trying to fix onside kicks.  they are almost impossible to catch when they are expected now

 

they could make adjustments to the kick but im not really a fan of them, just feels like they got a lucky bounce when they do convert
