I never saw a kickoff, what was it?

Several changes are being made to kickoffs, both attempting to reduce high-speed collisions and the resulting injuries but also encouraging more kickoff returns.

The kickoff will be from the 30-yard line, five yards behind the NFL spot. Kickers must kick the ball in the air and in play between the opponent's 20-yard line and the end zone.

The coverage team will line up on the return side 35-yard line and the return team on the 30-yard line. Each team must have exactly three players outside the hash marks on both sides of the ball and cannot move until the ball is caught by the returner.

Players can move when the ball is touched by the returner or three seconds after the ball touches the ground. Out-of-bounds kicks and kicks falling short of the 20-yard line will result in an illegal procedure penalty with the receiving team getting the ball on the kicking team's 45-yard line.

So can they kick it into the end zone?And out of bounds like through the end zone is illegal procedure?

That has to be very difficult for the return team to know when the ball is caught unless they have their backs turned until it is and also the refs keeping track of 3 guys on each side

Interesting nonetheless

If it's anything more than a partnership I think it would really hurt the CFL. I can't imagine the XFL wanting to play Canadian rules.

They could also go for a partnership with Liga teams in Mexico as well. Build a whole North American Super League.

That Vipers logo is rough. Looks like it has lipstick. Renegades doesn't even look like an 'R'. That SeaDragon is arguably the worst. Dragon in the shape of an S should have been a cakewalk to make look cool, and they went with that. Looks closer to a snake than a dragon. Brahmas kinda looks like a re-colored Spawn mask with bull horns on top. It might be better if it was just the horns with the B in the center.
