The new crop of offensively minded head coaches in the NFL are progressive and innovative and it is no surprise they are in favor of the new kick-off rules change.
Sean McVay, head coach of the Rams believable law change will bring out more exciting play from return teams and a renewed thrill for special team’s operatives.
“I think there’s going to be a lot of things that we learn in the midst of it,” McVay said. “As we start to figure out, schematically, how does that affect and influence the outcome of games? What does that do in terms of those 10 to 12 plays now that will be more prevalent, depending upon the approach.”
The HC thanked the special teams coordinators, who he believes acted in the best interest on improving the viewing experience of the NFL.
“It’s been a great job by our special teams coordinators in this league,” McVay said. “Presenting the proposal that they came up with, that is largely influenced from what the XFL has done. I think it’s important. You want to be able to keep the foot in the game and so there’s been a real conscientious effort to try to be able to do that.”
