I wouldn’t be surprised if the NFL eventually eliminates punt and kick off returns because of hits like this.

Well, they ought to change the name of the sport if they do that. It'd be less use o kicking on the ball than usual. I suggest American Handegg.

WOuldn't that make onside kicks quite obvious? Also, if they keep removing kicking, they'll need to change the name of the sport.


It would. But onside kicks are the only reason I can think to keep kickoffs at this point. It’s the most boring play in the sport and usually just ends in a touchback.

personally I could do without it.

May I suggest we change the sport's name to handegg in that case? Soccer is really football anyway.

Have you not seen the trend to this point? The game is nothing like it use to be.

If they do that, and with the QBs wearing dresses, and receivers can’t be touched. They should just go to flag football.
They lost a lot of viewers. But not sure if they are returning this season so far. But if they do this, they will lose viewers.

Oh, I have. All the more reason I suggest handegg. Makes naming the sport easier. After all, soccer is the real football anyway. Makes more sense. In American Football, the ball is shaped like an egg and carried by the hand. Thus, Handegg.
