Recently the NFL released that they are changing the PAT (Point after Touchdown) rule for this season. The rule pushes the Kick back to the 15-yard line and the two point conversion remains at the 2-yard line. The rule also make the play live, so the defense can score if they manage to return a, blocked kick or, turnover (interception, fumble) for two points. The league's owners voted 30-2 to approve a change in the rule.
My Opinion: I feel like this makes the PAT play more challenging and exciting. It also is a way to get teams to try the extra point more often. I also like the way that the defense can score in this situation, because it makes them more competitive knowing that they may be able to score. I am for this rule even though i’m not sure how much of an impact it will have, since kickers are almost automatic from 33 yards anyway.
