NFL Commish may do away with extra point

No idea, they never went into detail. Im guessing in some hypocritical fashion, they will find a more dangerous alternative because it adds artificial "excitement"

No, the commish said specifically that the two point conversion would stay.

Before you know it the NFL will consist of players competing in a game of paddycake while engaging in a name calling contest with half naked women mud wrestling in the foreground.

Also, how does this take away from the violence of the game? If anything, it adds a more dangerous play - a three yard offensive play.

If it's not broken,then don't try to fix it. The NFL Commish is going to keep screwing with the game until it is no longer the football game we came to love and support.

If he wants to make a positive change, he should get NFL officials that call  consistent games,not ones that look like they are staged or fixed.Seems it gets worse every year.

Choosing between 1 and 2 gives the game complexity and potential for amazing finishes.

This, and I have always answered rookie football watchers questions about the point system with "there are so many different ways to score".

Extra points, making one point conversions. Safeties, field goals.

It call all change the outcome of the game.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
