In this lively episode of Missing the Point, we dive deep into the history and future of one of the most exciting plays in football: the kick return. We explore:
Legendary returners like Devin Hester, Cordarrelle Patterson, and Nathan Vasher, and their impact on the game.
The evolution of kick returns and why we don't see as many game-changing plays in today's NFL.
The ongoing rule changes around kickoffs and how they’re affecting player safety and the excitement of the game.
Our wild ideas to bring the thrill back to kick returns, including unique rule changes that could revolutionize special teams play.
A throwback to Jason Elam's long-distance field goal prowess and the impressive leg power we're seeing from today's kickers.
Join us for a fun, nostalgic, and thought-provoking conversation about whether the kick return can still be a critical, dynamic part of football.
