NFL Commish may do away with extra point

There's one reason for EVERYTHING Goodell has done. Lets see if I can sum it up...

The suggestion came from Bill Belichick and is being explored by the Competition Committee. I don't like Goodell at all but he did not float this idea.

I would prefer they move it back 15 yards just to make it more interesting.

The extra point going away? The @nflcommish says it's possible. Also talked playoff expansion + reviewing helmet-helmet hits, tonite 8pm ET

 

It is kind of useless and I would prefer they make it more difficult.  But I can understand why they want to do away with it. 

 

But I can't help but think back to the 03 season, when a blocked extra point against Tampa helped propel us to a division winning season and our only (so far) superbowl appearance.

The article on NFL.com suggests the new rule would be taking seven points automatically, or risking only taking six if going for a point after attempt. (Kinda like the "Blitz" series games)

Goodell said that out of 1200 attempts, only five were not made.

 

One was a Panthers, one in a million, block in Tampa that helped us get to the Super Bowl.  

 

Leave poo alone, and get the fug off my lawn. 

 

(edit, I see someone already brought this up. fug off, and stay the fug off my lawn)
