It's a stupid rule, and kills the hope of a miracle play.

You may not like scoring, but I do.

From watching the raider game last night I have come to conclusion that at least 80% of the kickoffs will be touch backs. They are basically making it a waste of a play.
Not good NFL, not good
might have done that to prevent injuries
players prolly had a say in that too

No not really
Its preaseason so many players are taking chances they would not be allowed to take once the games count. Also many of those players only have a few chances to show their skills so they take more chance.

not really ruined but hampered for sure, a team can lul the other team to sleep by downing it every time. and just when they least expect it. bam return. it has cut down on alot of fierce action though. a good and bad thing. good because it limits injuries, bad because they are crippling one of the sports best plays. the kick return has it all. big blocks, viscous hits, explosive runs, etc. im a bit bummed out myself.
