Denver Broncos coach Sean Payton thinks the NFL's new kickoff rule will transform the sport.
"Significant is a modest word for that," Broncos coach Sean Payton told reporters of the change. "I think all of us here, you guys asking the questions, myself answering them, this is going to be — we're excited about it. Every team like us right now is going through the 'what ifs' and the landing zones. Then I think most importantly, who's doing it different than who did it a year ago, because it's a completely different play."
The NFL made drastic changes to its kickoff system this offseason, modeled after an experiment done in the XFL.
