Thread: NFL to experiment with alternative to onside kick at Pro Bowl

However, I know as I watch the game I will have a hard time rooting for KC and against Jimmy G so I will likely be rooting for SF even though it's preferable if KC wins.

Got it?

I'm not sure you have thought this through.

that is definitely true after the NFL changed the rules and made converting an onside kick essentially f**king impossible. I’d prefer the NFL just go back to the prior kickoff rules, at least for onside kicks towards to end of the game. In this scenario, the kicking team would have to declare their intent, but usually everyone already knows they’re going to try the onside kick anyway.

I was planning the root for the 49ers because I really dislike the Chiefs and their fans due to how obnoxious and irritating they were while my daughter was attending college in Kansas. I have made some good points regarding preventing the 49ers from winning a 6th Super Bowl.

I hope the refs win.
