Patriots exploiting new kickoff rule to their benefit

[MountainHeel66]

Personally, while I know many will disagree, I would rather not risk the big play, injuries from special teams play, OR (and I don't think this gets enough attention) the risk of kicking it out of bounds and putting the ball on the 40. I think we are taking the easy and safe way out and its smart. We may not look as glamorous as those teams choosing to make the 5 yard difference but we also aren't going to get guys hurt as much or risk the return penalties that could cause a lot more damage. We are built around our defense and Cam so just give them the 5 and have confidence that you'll go out there and stop them.

TBH, i want teams to kick the ball short to Ted Ginn. He's usually 1 block from taking it to the house. Nvm, they would just call holding on us.

With teddy williams?, yeah you can count on it.
