Nothing wrong with tradition. Nothing wrong with the NFL extra point nor has there been for the past 80 years. More Vince McGoodell boolshyt.
so 6 7 or 8 points in this case...stupid
You do understand that this is what we do currently. 6 or 8 if you choose to run or pass, and 7 if you take the automatic kick.
All that is being suggested is the kick be truly automatic. The team will have the same option to go for two as they do now.
I don't see any reason to get rid of it. 06 Bengals missed the playoffs because a missed extra point.
If that's what he wants to do then why not just force teams to always go for 2....
speaking of which...what a tremendous day yesterday!!!! All those kickoffs going out of the end zone on EVERY kickoff. PROGRESS!!!! EXCITING!!!! now I know why when I was a little kid the kickoff return was one of the exciting things that hooked me as a lifelong fan..because I'm STUPID!!! I don't need that kind of lousy entertainment. I need the guy kicking the ball out of the end zone and watching 22 players go through the motions for no reason. IMPROVEMENT!!! YOU'RE A STUPID DINOSAUR IF YOU DON"T LOVE THIS!!!
That sucks, the Manning/Polian rules suck, the ridiculous PI rule changes suck and all this moronic Goodelian tinkering trying to fix what ain't broke SUCKS. May as well obliterate the ******' extra point to make you simps happy too
I've seen a suggestion to have the PAT attempted on the same horizontal plane as where the TD was scored and that would increase the difficulty. Like how rugby does it.
I'd like to think that's a good idea except I think that changes the game in a lot bigger way than you'd think. That would make an offense less inclined to throw to a corner of the end zone to score. Defenses can just send bodies to the middle of the end zone - or on a run defense, load up the middle and "concede" anything to the outside where the PAT might be a lot more difficult....
well then, the hell with it...at ball three just automatically walk the batter...Rondo at the line with the game in hand, give him the automatic points...jeezus krist you have to be a real bored mf'er to want anything like this implemented. It's THE GAME. Sure the make rate is in the high 90's but there is ALWAYS that chance, at a crucial point, that a miss or block happens. I WANT that choice. I don't want it legislated away like every other gd'ed part of this game seems to be.
