Opinions have been mixed since NFL owners voted this week to make extra-point kicks more challenging by moving them back to the 15-yard line.
Count Ravens Head Coach John Harbaugh among those in favor of the change.
“I think it’s a good thing,” Harbaugh said after his commencement address at Stevenson University Thursday. “I think it’s a positive thing. We’re for it.”
Previously, extra points and two-point conversions were both attempted from the 2-yard line. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell urged owners to make a change because the 18-yard extra-point kicks had become virtually automatic, and pushing them back to 33-yard attempts will create a greater challenge.
