There will be no kickoffs as teams will start on the 25-yard line after a score and at the start of each half. Since there are no kickoffs, however, that means no onside kicks, but Polian said he found a solution: The team that scored a touchdown gets the ball on its 35 in a 4th-and-10 situation." That...is interesting. love it!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UtahUtesFan Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I'm watching. The TV deal with one game per week on CBSSN and even a few on CBS makes this league somewhat decent. Hopefully there's a team in Salt Lake City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, if you really wanted to punters or kickers, the way to do it is: - No kickoffs, which they've already done. - No PAT, although personally I prefer the idea of allowing the scoring team an automatic point or the right to gamble it to try for 2. - No field goals - On 4th down, you have two options. You can either go for it on 4th down, or voluntarily give up possession but be awarded 45 yards of field position Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't the first time I've heard this idea but I think it sounds pretty good. Skip to about 14 minutes for an explanation of how it would work, although here it's 4th and 15 at your own 30 instead of 4th and 10 at your 35.

TheKillerNacho Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 We needed a development league for a long time. This will take place in the spring, I take it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think having an all-north America feeder league is a pretty decent idea. Have a few Mexican teams and maybe a Canadian team if the market is there along with US teams in smaller markets. There are avenues for a feeder league to do very very well. The XFL if it even happens isn't gonna be it lol but this could be if done right.
