Why The XFL Was Actually Years Ahead Of Its Time

Rules Don’t Have To Be Black And White

The XFL is trying to be everything that the NFL isn’t, from rules like receivers needing only one foot inbounds for a pass reception, to teams having 35 seconds to get a play off after the previous play was ruled dead. With that, there was obviously no coin toss, and no fair catches as well. These rules were constantly changing and fluid.
