re: NFL institutes XFL kickoff rules from last season

don't understand why this rule is stupid.

It encourages more kickoff returns while reducing the chances of serious injury.

Seems like a win-win proposition to me.

Because people see NFL "change" and they immediately bitch without comprehending the actual rule.

To be fair, most of the rule changes have sucked so I get it, but this one is actually bringing the kickoff closer to what it used to be than anything.

We'll see more returns, more creative play returns and certainly more return TDs.
