Just read that there is a rule change for onside kicks being considered. Instead of the onside kick, there would be a 4th & 12 attempt at the 28yd line. 🤯 This rule change would have a massive impact on the game, and I think I’m a fan. Thoughts?

I feel like big rule changes only happen when big things happen in playoffs - brady tuck rule, did Dez catch it, OT rule change because of KC BUF, first down measurement because of KC BUF, etc. so maybe this happens but id be all for it. onside kicks rarely succeed imo

It’s not gonna happen unless the bills lose to the chiefs again in playoffs because their onside kick fails

Yeah that has been getting kicked around for years now It's been put up at least five different times. supposed to be a safer alternative than the current on side kick. every other time they've brought it up it has been longer yards than 12 yards though. Like the last one would have been 4 and 20 from your own 35. I think it's garbage myself might as well be playing flag football or Peewee. The reason the onside kick only had two conversions is because nobody does it anymore because of the new rules where you cannot overload one side. So they made the original on side kick harder to begin with.

why are we looking to reward teams that are losing with gimmicky plays.

go back to original on side rule.

just declare it's gonna be onside kick .

then use old rules to implement the play.
