Klecko73isGod Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 It one of the ways they are showing their phony concern for player safety. What's funny is that kickoffs were moved from the 35 to the 30 in 1994 because they were deemed too boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsFanFromQueens Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Is horrible. Who's dumb idea was this? Roger Goodell. He's trying to reduce the amount of injuries, but instead took plenty of potential momentum away from the game. Kickoff returns have always been a big part of the game, this could especially hurt the Jets, because over the years... we've always found ways to feature productive return men under Mike Westhoff.

Yeah but at the same time, nobody will be bitching about the next Mike Nugent's short kickoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustInFudge Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Pretty stupid if you ask me...takes one of the most exciting aspects of the game away. I mean seriously, whats more exciting then a KR for a TD? I ******* hate Roger Goodell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloridaJetsFan Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Before we judge, let's look at how many guys got beheaded last year simply cause they didn't wave a fair catch ... well, okay, that was a sh*tty example. Nevermind ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flgreen Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Gonna hurt Smith's value to the Bills big time. Westhoff estimated that 35% of the kick offs wouldn't be returned. Up from 18% he also said they better kick it in the bleaches or we were bring it out. After watching the Pats game another rule that's annoying is the review of every TD.

Bleedin Green Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Jay Feely can line drive his kickoffs in Arizona all day long now. You have no idea how happy I am that you made this post. I absolutely hated that douche, and that was one of the many reasons why. In Westhoff's entire tenure as Jets ST coach, Feely's two years here were the only time the Jets not only weren't the best team in the league at covering kicks, but downright sucked at it, and most people never understood this douchebag was the reason why. I was at that Dolphins game in 2009, and I will never forgive him for what happened that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
