"The committee is proposing to include field goals in instant replay review, give teams the option of deferring to receive the ball in the second half on the coin toss."
Currently, the winner of the toss has the option to receive, or defend a goal at the start of the game. This proposed change refers to the 2nd half - and the loser of the toss. I always thought it was the loser's choice to receive or kick off in the 2nd half; evidently not.
However...when the wind direction will be a factor, I shake my head when - almost all teams all the time that win the toss - opt to receive the ball in the 1st half, allowing the loser to pick the wind.
If I won the toss, I'd gladly give up an initial possession and the loser's 2nd half possession to get the wind at my back in the 4th quarter.
The best outcome when the wind howls in one predominant direction, is to lose the toss, and see the toss winner elect to receive the ball. The toss loser gets to have the wind at their back in the 4th, and also gets the KO in the 3rd.
