Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 744406">That was a nice return by Davis were it not for Jones' block in the back.The kickoff return was one of the most exciting plays in football not so long ago.  Between the touchbacks and the penalties it's turned into a waste of time.   Since you can't get rid of it entirely because the on-side kick needs to be retained I would suggest the kicking team gets the option of either kicking or putting the ball at the 25 and be done with this obsolete football play.  Otherwise, go back to what it was:  move the kick back and put the touchback at the 20.  But the league will never do that because of the injury incidence.  These half measures that have been taken make for bad football.The only other option would be to give the kicking team a point if they put it through the uprights to make this play worth playing.</blockquote>
