Yep. Unfair to the punters who are able to pin the opponents deep in their own territory

the rule only applies to kick returns, not punt returns

Kick returns were pretty much nullified on the last rule change. It's usually a touchback now anyway

Hate the Jets but happy he’s getting a opportunity and hope dude finds a job

Honestly, considering that the games are in primetime, I'm of the belief that TNF games should only be broadcasted maybe five or six times out of the year and be for games that the majority of the4 country would like to watch.

I think that all thursday games should be between two teams coming off of byes and that thursday games should cease after the last league bye week.

Still get the games, players get adequate rest and prep and the product on the field increases exponentially

Another rule to promote offense. Expect to see a lot more coffin corner punts

Commanders’ trademark application is denied​

Some have wondered whether the new owner of the Washington Commanders will change the team’s name. Again.

The new owner might have no choice. Via trademark attorney Josh Gerben on Twitter, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has denied the trademark application for the name “Commanders.”

The reason for the denial was: (1) the existence of a trademark for “Commanders’ Classic”; and (2) pending applications filed by a man in the D.C. area.

The Commanders’ Classic is the name of the annual college football game between Army and Air Force. Also, Martin McCaulay filed trademarks for “Washington Space Commanders” and “Washington Wolf Commanders,” at a time when he was trying to squat on the team’s potential new name.

It doesn’t end the issue. As Gerben explains, the team can fight the matter, and it can attempt to work out a deal to use the name. (McCaulay already has said he’ll surrender anything he owns to the team. That’s something he has been saying for several years now.

Gerben believes the team will eventually be able to use the name. The separate question is whether new ownership will want to. The best move could be to make a clean break from All Things Snyder, and a full rebrand could be part of that effort.
