New Extra Point Rule

[Mike]

This New Rule is Making Football way more Interesting.

Just Today
Put Bills lead in Question
Saints blocked extra point & returned it for 2pts to go up 16-13
Both KC vs OAK have missed last 3 extra points

~ It's becoming similar to Free Throws in NBA

I actually hate it. There is enough going on in this convoluted sport, now I have to worry about extra points? PATs deciding the impact of games? No thanks.

More Missed Extra Points Today -9- than All of Last Season -8-

Ditto.

Just another way for the Bills to lose a close game.

Oh no I don't disagree with you that it is making things more interesting.

I just don't want the game to be interesting because of PATs.

Re: New Extra Point Rule

I enjoy the new rule and I think it will become more entertaining in future years as teams adapt and try less PAT' s and more 2 point conversion attempts.

Re: New Extra Point Rule

So it's working?

The point was to make it not automatic.

And for the Bills we just need to find a Kicker worth a ****.

Re: New Extra Point Rule

I like it. It's exasperating when YOUR kicker misses one, but overall it's added to the game IMO.

On the outside chance the Bills squeak into the playoffs, I think we need to be working on a couple viable 2-point plays rather than relying on a Carpenterrancy.

Re: New Extra Point Rule

I love it. The PAT now actually has meaning and significance. If you lose a game because you miss a PAT then shame on you.

Re: New Extra Point Rule

The problem is that it was becoming automatic. 8 missed extra points all of last season? If it's that easy, might as well make the touchdown worth 7 and get rid of the kick.

Re: New Extra Point Rule

I think it gives southern teams and dome teams an advantage. I'm interested to see if teams will consider going for two more often.

Agreed.

Re: New Extra Point Rule

I'd like it more if Carpenter would stop choking. He has missed five already this season. FIVE!

Re: New Extra Point Rule

Conversion attempt snapped from the 15 yard line for 1 point .... Field Goal attempt snapped at the same distance or less results in 3 points ...makes perfect sense
