The touchback rule is HARSH. I LOVE it.

What is their rule on it? I was busy and didn't catch what happens. The game has been pretty interesting though for sure. Dragons seem pretty weak on offense though.

That was a nice pass. Much better than I saw from the Dragons.

Love the new XP rule

So they have a 9th team that practices but doesn't play. They are game ready players that can sub in to one of the eight real teams in case of injury.

The XFL designed its kicking rules in a way to increase the amount of returns we see compared to the NFL, and to make returns safer.  Kickoffs are going to look very different.

On a kickoff, the kicker will kick the ball from their own 30-yard line, but every blocker will be lined up on the opposing team’s 35-yard line. The return team blockers will be lined up at their own 30, just five yards away.

Only the kicker and receiver can move before the ball is caught. All other blockers are permitted to move when the ball is caught, or three seconds after it hits the ground, if the ball isn’t caught.

Kicks that fly out of bounds, or kicks that fall short of the opposing 20-yard line, will result in the receiving team taking the ball at the kicking team’s 45-yard line.

Touchbacks will result in the receiving team starting at their own 35-yard line unless it lands in bounds and bounces out of the back of the endzone, then it is placed on the return team's 15.

Teams will be required to inform an official if they plan to use an onside kick, meaning they cannot surprise the opposing team with an onside kick.

The NFL has needed a minor league for years.

The best possible outcome for both this league and the NFL would be for an arrangement of that sort to be made.

There’s no way either party would go for that. 

Hes paying these guys what? 60,000 a year? I’m sure without representation.
