NFL question on kick offs...
October 7, 2021 at 10:23 pm
I do not understand the difference between a kick going out of bounds on a punt, vs a ball going out of bounds on a kick off after a score. Isn't the idea to put  back the receiving team up as much as possible? 

I don't think it should matter if you went 3 and out and punted a kick to the point your rival had to start at the 5 yard line. I also don't understand why after a field goal, or touchdown, why your kick off team kicker cant kick the ball out of bounds as close to the end zone so that you, the receiving team has to start as far back as possible.
