What is the new kickoff rule in the NFL and why is it better than previous kickoffs?
In: Other
when the ball is kicked, the players who are trying to block and the players who are trying to get through them start closer together. This means they don’t have as much time to run fast and crash into each other. It’s like starting a race closer to the finish line.
Also, if the ball goes into the area where you score points (the end zone), the player catching it can decide to start the game again from a better spot without having to run with the ball. This means there’s less need to run fast and crash into others.
The reason it’s better is that it makes the game safer by reducing the chance of players getting hurt from running into each other really hard. It also makes the game more fun to watch because there will be more times when players run with the ball and try to dodge the other team, which is one of the most exciting parts of the game.
