I don't like the option of an alternative to the on side kick.

If you are already losing of course you would take the option to maintain possession by completing a 4th and 15 from your 25 yard line.
With today's mobile QBs and dominant players like a Travis Kelce or a big bodied WR like DK Metcalf to throw up a 50/50 ball to ....some teams would have a better chance to succeed. Not to mention the odds of obtaining a DEF holding or PI call to further the trailing team's chances
 
I want to see them let kicking back in the game. I really don't like the fourth-and-XX to go to get possession of the ball.

I'm in favor of whatever they can do to speed up the replay process.
 
If the onside kick rule is 4th and 15 the kicking team has ALREADY in fact recovered the ball and is on offense, horrible rule.

Agree it would be horrible..... I can see a bunch of laterals and craziness on the field to gain 15 yards..... then what..... if the play goes for a TD does it count or is it a dead ball after 15 yards. If successful where is the ball placed to start the OFF possession.....

ain't broke .....don't fix it
 
The Eagles don't seem to happy with the rules. But most of their ideas suck balls. Review for fouls on scoring plays. What is the scope. Holding? That will work like a dream.

The GAME is delayed unbearable currently, how much more is this going to add to the delay????

I think the booth ref & technician could be a great thing but pending on how they are used. XFL has great useage of how they are used.





Salute the nation
 
4. 6. 7.
 
How many rules exist now?

I remember a time I could actually follow the game.

How true.
Imagine being part of the officiating crew.
They need to make these guys a full time position........ not like the league can't afford it....... make them take classes through the week.... practice...... film room... quality testing....performance reviews and subject to fines if they make mistakes with interpreting the rules during a game
Make them operate as a team with the post season a reward financially if their crew is selected to participate. It would improve the game.

I haven't watched much XFL. I haven't been particularly impressed with what I have seen, but the mechanics of their review with its transparency is a good idea.
