NFL rule change on kickoffs
Basically, the kickoff moves up to the 35 yard line.
Here's a link to CBS:

I know some people may not think its a big deal.
However, to those of us that actually pay attention to stats like touchbacks and kick returns, it will change the game up.
Some of those teams that have two kickers that use one for field goals and 1 for the kickoff, might be able to utilize an actual roster spot by going down to 1 kicker.
Cleveland Browns notorious return man Josh Cribbs tweets:NFL rule changes are BS... U not making the game safer u messing a great sport, trynna hide behind safety just to add 2 games...smh
So, we already have a return man unhappy with the rule change.
Ya I think it is bs as well. Keep it the same. Next thing you know they gonna make a touch back worth 1 point like in the CFL as well!!!
On the replay side of things, all scoring plays will now be subject to a replay by the booth (a rule which passed with a 30-2 vote), which no longer means that coaches need to feel concerned with throwing their red flags on an issue that occurs near the goal line. Additionally, coaches will continue to earn a third challenge if they win their first two, though that was considered as a possibility to be dropped.
Does that come into play if it is ruled not a score? ie. the player didn't cross the line, didn't get two feet down etc.Originally Posted by Laki
Are those automatically reviewed as well?
Helps the teams with a bad special teams, like the super bowl champs
YAAAYYYYY!! No more exciting kickoff returns and more touchbacks! And it's going to take an extra 15 minutes between scores and extra points because the booth has to make sure that the incompetent refs can get a call right.

so much BS... they're really taking a shit on NFL next thing you know we'll have players wrapped up in Bubble wrap just to make sure they're safe enough... I SAY IT'S A LOAD OF CRAP!
There was no need to change to rule. It was fine the way it was.
it will make a big difference in totals !!!!
A teams chance of scoring when starting from the 40 rather
than the 20 yrd line is a 40% greater !
3 more touch-backs in a game will result in a seven point
drop in average lines.
Going to be slamming the under the first 2 weeks of the season.
wow betweather could not have said it better.
This is a really homo rule.
Unfortunately I am a Chiefs fan !!!!
We need the ball on the 40 at least 3 times a game to
have any chance
might as well name *no more devin hester* rules.. what the hell.. just keep the way it is.. worry abt getting the league back
what the hell.. just keep the way it is..
These clowns in the NFL can't stay away from messing with the rules, "let's try to eliminate one of the most exciting plays in football."
I guess it's not as bad as putting the goal posts on the goal line like we had for so many years.
It used to be the 35 yard line and was changed to 30 yard line in 1974. Of course the NFL player average size back then was 5'4", 125 lbs.
i dont like the rule change the old way was fine

HAHAHA,,,, thats very funny
You must be old as dirt !
That's a really good question. This is just a stupid change. WHY?
No more exciting kickoff returns and more touchbacks!
This new nfl KICKOFF RULE is TERRIBLE!!
every single kick is going through the endzone or at least halfway in and unreturnable
going to see lower scoring games because of this
philly game 3 kickoffs, 3 touchbacks
NE game they took it out and get to the 10
terrible rule... pretty much no more kickoff returns now...ball goes past the end zone
Kickoff Rule
This rule is the worst thing i've seen since the roughing the passer penalty..........there is going to be no kick returns this year.
This fvckin league is getting more boring and lame as the years go on.
I need to go to bed
15 posts about this.
Now 16 smartass
this is the best rule i've ever seen. kickoffs are so stupid. blah blah fans this fans that...f.u.c.k that.
NFL moving kickoffs to 35 yd line. Hate It.
As you all know, NFL this season has changed the kickoff line
from 30 yards to 35 yards. This will result in a far greater number
of touchbacks, and possibly greatly remove the kickoff-return factor
from the game.
terrible, terrible, TERRIBLE decision by nfl
Why not just kick it from the 50 yard line.
