Replacing kickoffs with 4th and 10 or 15 from your own 25 or 30 would be great. Safer and allows for lots of sneakiness, AND lots of offense.

I remember seeing this play very occasionally in the 70's. The problem at the time was that teams attempting an onside kick -- as the Vikings did when they were down against the 49ers late in a playoff game -- the whole team would line up along the kickoff line, then shift over to the side they were kicking to, totally telegraphing the onside kick. I believe it was Curt Gowdy I heard saying that they should just kick without the shift and catch the team by surprise.

To be fair, killing the surprise onside kick has the purpose of revivng kickoff returns. Every kickoff in the Super Bowl was a touchback whereas watching the XFL and UFL has actually made me look forward to kickoffs since they have a real impact on scoring

Exactly! People can be sad about the surprise onside, but they are incredibly rare in actual week to week games. This will make kickoffs in EVERY game more fun to watch and not just a snack break.

As someone who watches this from Australia and just likes all the sports, it kinda surprises me that there wasn't more in the style of Rugby where you could go for a mid range (probably 15-20) high kick to try and get the possession off a jump (with the better momentum on your side) though I guess it probably comes down to not having the time to prep for something like that.

If the ball is just kicked in the air the receiver can call a fair catch and be allowed to catch it without interference

@psymar3 ай бұрын
If you just kick it high the other team will call for a fair catch and you can only get it if they fumble. Teams used to try for a high bounce, but since they've added a rule that you can fair catch a first bounce as well.

No, it comes down to American rules, where the receiving team (for the past century) has to be given opportunity to catch a fly ball; plus, even if the kicking team recovers, the ball is dead. Not so in Canadian rules, where that type of kickoff is still used.

The surprise onside kick and onside kicks in general are some of my favorite plays. The surprise onside kick is very risky, making it extremely exciting. The standard onside kick although only having a 10% chance of working, is still one of the most exciting plays in football. When it works it can kead to a team overcoming a teo score deficit in a very short period of time. It's exciting, plain and simple.

Comeuppance is not a synonym for revenge, it rather is when doing something to hurt another cycles around to hurt you, regardless of whether it's done by the original victim. If Team A suprise onsides team B, comeuppance is any team hitting a surprise onside against team A.

Can you acknowledge an onside kick in the fourth quarter and then not do it? Just curious. I'm not hip-deep into the new rules. Great introspective into the history of this play.
@DamonNomad823 ай бұрын
If that is legal to do, I could see it becoming a tactic I would dub the "Cry Wolf". A team always declares onside kicks before every 4th quarter kickoff, but kicks the ball normally most of the time, to put opponents off guard when they actually DO need to try one. If the same thought occurred to the makers of the rule, I suspect that it's probably against the rules...

The onside kickoff is far older than your research goes. Where to start? In the commonest organized form of football played in the USA before the college students took up rugby, it was specified that the kickoff not be "babied", effectively banning the onside kickoff. But once the colleges took up rugby, there was no minimum distance required for the ball to go forward, so it could just be tapped (a "technical kickoff") and picked up. Once this led to the flying wedge, however, a requirement that the ball be kicked forward 10 yards was adopted in 1895 with the aim of outlawing that play. However, it remained common to chip the ball high and to the side to give the kicking team a chance to recover in the air. The reason there was particular interest in onside kickoffs in 1924 was that in 1923 "opportunity to catch the ball" was introduced for the receiving team in the rules, effectively outlawing in American, but not Canadian, rules the commonest former kind of onside kickoff (the chip to the side). This renewed interest in the style of kickoff where the ball is made to hit the ground (making a catch impossible) before the kicking team player recovers it.

Two things: LOVE the historical content, my guy 😎 And the other: the 2000 Eagles onside vs. Dallas, in Dallas, to open the game (and the season) is also known as The Pickle Juice Game. It was warm and humid all week, and especially that day, and to prepare the Eagles players were drinking pickle juice in the days before and that morning (the vinegar helps flush the body of toxins, the added sodium helps maintain electrolyte balance). And it worked. Philly romped the Cowboys, 41 - 14. The Eagles rushed for over 300yds (Duce Staley topped 200 by himself), held the Cowboys to 167 yds of total offense (Dallas QB's were sacked 5 times, and completed less than 50%... this would end up being Aikman's last year). That game set a tone: the new Eagles were here. After 3 straight terrible seasons, Philly was turning the corner and would be relevant in the NFCE for most of the following decade. I was there and had a blast. Lost my voice. And it's the only time I've seen my beloved Birds play live.

I'm all for player safety, but if you're going to legislate all the fun out of kickoffs, then maybe just get rid of the play altogether. I forget who came up with this idea, but I heard a KZbinr say we should get rid of the kickoff entirely and replace it with a 4th and 15 for the team that just scored. Then they can either punt the ball away or go for it to try and keep possession.
