NFL officially moves extra point to 15-yard line

NFL moves extra point to 15-yard line for 2015 season

By Kevin Patra
Around the NFL writer

NFL owners approved the Competition Committee's proposal on extra points for the 2015 season.

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 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.

The approved rule, which was decided on a 30-2 vote by NFL owners, was one of three proposals considered by owners Tuesday at the NFL's Spring League Meeting.

Owners considered a proposal by the New England Patriots similar to the adopted plan, but without the defense's ability to score. A plan proposed by the Philadelphia Eagles called for a 15-yard PAT and the ball on the 1- yard line for two-point tries.

The NFL has been tinkering with the PAT in hopes of making it a more difficult and therefore entertaining play for spectators. The latest change might be just the first step of further adjustments in years to come.

NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport also reported that the Redskins' proposal to have roster cuts done all at once -- moving from 90-man to 53-man rosters prior to the start of the season -- was voted down by owners, per a source.

In a move only 15 seconds after this was announced, Roger Goodell announced that touchdowns will be worth 3 points or 13 points depending on a coin flip after each score, and sacks of any quarterback who star in nationally run commercials or are in the top 15 in jersey sales will be met with -1 points to the offending team and a 25 yard penalty levied at the discretion of the opposing coach at any time during the game.

I don't like this idea. Coaches will still end up kicking the PAT almost every time. Assuming that it holds with percentages on FGs, scoring a TD then kicking a PAT will average you 6.9 points per possession. If you go for two, you will average 6.956 points per possession.

It doesn't incentivize the two-point play enough. Consequently, it makes field goals more valuable than previously.

This actually will end up causing more chicken-shit coaching decisions, because it will increase the value of a FG to a TD+PAT.

An easy PAT should be a reward for not Herming it up.

I don't mind the rule, but I mind having new rule changes every flipping year. Goodell is a disaster.

I bet since the defense can score now and the ball is so much farther back, the holders will just be taught to eat it.

I agree. Hate this idea. Im also tired of all the rule changes every year. Why not have more rules to favor defense for a change? Oh yeah, its all about scoring and offense these days...

This is an absolutely awful move that will radically change the game.

Dome kickers and teams will have a unfair advantage over cold weather cities and eventually affect free agency and wasting draft choices on kickers.

When the Chiefs lose a game at Arrowhead in the cold wind by two points because their kicker missed a PAT, the kicker will become the most hated position in town.

Bad, bad decision.

It's 13 yards. The ball is currently spotted on the 2. Instead of a 19 yard kick it'll be a 32 yard kick.

Just make the extra point automatic unless a team wants to try for two where they add one or remove one

The extra point adds useless time to the games that could be used to bring you more commercials instead
