I don’t like this. End of the game and the offense is down by 4 with a minute

Why are you assuming a 35 yarder is 4 points and a longer one is 5 points?

Make it a target. Bullseye is 3 points, then 2, then 1 for barely making it

Give the end zone 5 more yards

How about 110 yard field like Canadian football

BaseCoug

And wider too? Nah, just longer kicks - CFL has the post at the goal line
