What are all the new kickoff rules? @Superman@w87r

Anyone else?

 

Someone on the Vikings site shared this article with me:

LANDING ZONE

Landing zone is the area between the receiving team’s goal line and its 20-yard line.

 

*Any kick that hits short of the landing zone – treated like kickoff out of bounds and ball spotted at B40 yard line; play would be blown dead as soon as kick lands short of the landing zone

 

*Any kick that hits in the landing zone - must be returned

 

*Any kick that hits in the landing zone and then goes into the end zone – must be returned or downed by receiving team – if downed then touchback to B20 yard line

 

*Kick hits in end zone, stays inbounds - returned or downed – if downed then touchback to B30 yard line

 

*Any kick that goes out of the back of the end zone (in the air or bounces) – touchback to B30 yard line

Take that Saints!

 

These rules are retroactive right? So the Colts now won the 2010 SB as well!   😁

Saints were chickens and didn't want to kick to us with Peyton having the lead. They lucked out. We had the better team. That 1 play was a 14-point swing.
