Each McDonald's franchise is an individual business free to have its own pay scale. And NFL teams are individual businesses. Just saying. Now back to kickoffs..... Idk about mcdonlds specifically but the i know other franchise type businesses have set pay scales Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would really spice up Home field advantage Forget the nfl lets start our own league. Like an extreme league.....i know the EFL. We are going to revolutionize the sport.

I've never heard of such an arrangement and would be curious about the legality of it so I'd like to hear some specific examples so I can research it.

Shanedorf Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 IF the problem with kickoffs is 10 kamikazes running down the field with a 40 yard head start, maybe just change the LOS for the kickoff coverage players The kicker and returner stay in their original positions, kickoff from the 30 yard line ( or 35), returners set up around the 5 or goalline But the other 10 players for both teams are lined up at the Receiving teams' 35 yard line, close to one another just like on a scrimmage play. Kicker kicks off. Ball sails over their heads to the returner and the players commence blocking/shedding and getting after the KR. Any kicks that don't clear the LOS at the receiving team 35 are dead where they land. You still have kickoffs, but the speed at which the players collide is the same as any LOS play. That allows the NFL to say they made the play safer while still maintaining the excitement of a KR. Its not all that different from a punt where the punter is lined up 17 yards behind the skirmish, in this case the placekicker is lined up 30 yards behind the skirmish.

Pretty they mean kicking team will line up at 35 and can't start running till ball is kicked and the return team needs to bring most of its players closer to where the kicking team lines up. Such changes would reduce the full speed collisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
