PATs 1% less boring. There's now a dog's chance in hell of missing it instead of the previous mark of a retard dog's chance in hell.

The NFL announced the extra point will now be kicked from the 15-yard line with two-point conversions remaining at the 2-yard line. The new rule also gives the defense the ability to score two points on returns.

According to the rule change, if the defense returns a blocked extra point or failed two-point try for a touchdown (i.e. on an interception), they will be awarded two points. Under the previous rule the ball was dead on a failed try.

Yes!

This is better than what they had, and not as stupid as "go for two every time".

Broncos kicker Connor Barth: "Narrowing the uprights would make it a lot more challenging than moving the extra point," Barth said via The Denver Post. "Most guys can hit 33-yarders in their sleep."

Jets looking forward to another disappointing season.
What we didn't know until now is that offensive coordinator Chan Gailey already views Smith as the Week 1 starter, barring injury.


Bridgewater wants to throw more interceptions.

Cowboys picking up RB insurance.
The Cowboys are working out former Texans, Browns, Vikings and Steelers running back Ben Tate, NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported Thursday.
...
And, in a stunning effort to recreate the 2007 Arkansas Razorbacks, the Cowboys are also looking at Felix Jones, per Rapoport.

Why didn't the Vikes trade him? They think it's going to get easier as the regular season rolls around ... what, because there's less pressure then?

Troll gets one last post.

Cheating liar will have his appeal heard on the 23rd of June. Here's hoping "FUCK YOU" is somewhere in the official decision.

Fan gets under Manziel's skin.

In Manziel's defense, if this guy was honestly harassing and touching him all day I'm not sure why someone else didn't step in and take the fan away.

He should've recreated the iconic scene from Say Anything, except playing Melle Mel.
