Goodell Changing The Game.....again

[FalconFanSince1969 11,751]

Extra-point attempts have been moved from the two- to 15-yard line, though two-point conversions will continue to take place from the two-yard line.

That means PATs will now be 33 yards instead of 20. It's a drastic change, not one everyone was necessarily asking for. There will now be big games decided by missed extra points. The league also implemented another rule change, awarding two points for botched PATs or two-point conversions that are returned for a score by the defense. That rule was already employed by the NCAA.

Not a surprise

[DonOfThemBirds 14,064]

Not a bad change in my opinion.

Teams' defenses should be able to score on a returned extra point try.

[FentayeJones 21,678]

Its a good thing we have the other Matty Ice for a few more years.

[FalconFanSince1969 11,751]

Not a bad change in my opinion.

Def adds value to the resigning of Money Matt Bryant.

[kingslasher 207]

Not all Goodell is it? I'm sure the rules committee and owners have some say too. The automatic xp was getting old anyway.

[HEIST 5,105]

I like this change.

Yeah I believe the owners have to vote on it.

Yep

[krammmit 1,365]

I like it. Removing the kick all together just isn't football imo.

[FalconFanSince1969 11,751]

Give us our kick offs back and special teams would be really interesting..

[sonnyjim 583]

I eagerly await the first 15 yard 2 point conversion.+

[WOR 23,950]

Im not sure how making every play matter makes the game worse?

Noting is given. Everything is earned. Pretty much sums up the attitude of the NFL. If thats true, why should we basically "give" away points?

Did you even read it?

[etherdome 5,322]

They should have moved the extra point further away. I want teams to earn their score.

By far, the most boring play of any football game is the extra point kick.

Move it back further and force teams to judge the risks and benefits of going for two.

[Bawse 5,006]

Minimal change.

[Free Radical 3,459]

Did you even read it?

Fake PAT.

[HASHBROWN3 15,052]

So at what point does the nfl turn this game into a Fing joke. Lets say we make one drastic change each year until it ain't football anymore.

I used to stick up for Goodell but I am growing sick of this man... The national panzy league is coming to a theatre near you.

[HASHBROWN3 15,052]

I mean this PAT thing along with the kickoff thing coupled with this, that and another thing... where is the end?

[FalconFanSince1969 11,751]

Fake PAT.

Can't imagine we will see too many of those if any at all.

[ya_boi_j 54,788]

So am I the only one remember this being talked about last year? It was gonna be this or just give the automatic extra with an option to go for two

[Drunken Minotaur Zebra 6,873]

I like this change.

Same this is good

[likeriver 6,097]

I don't mind it. Teams like us that have an awesome kicker will only profit from it.

[WOR 23,950]

I don't mind it. Teams like us that have an awesome kicker will only profit from it.

And teams like the stains who can't find a kicker will.... We'll you know.
