I think it will increase the amount of returns, which will probably increase the number of big returns. I am slightly concerned that it will be too dramatic of a change, but other leagues used it and it worked for them.

The old system was just so pointless. We were at a point where they may as well have just gotten rid of kickoffs and have everyone start at the 25.

Do you think it will really increase the amount of big returns or the league will figure it out and it will mostly end of the same?

Stacker Sports- New NFL Kickoff Rule

I'm still intrigued. I also think it's too early to evaluate it, since many teams aren't showing their cards until the regular season.

I hated that kick returns were going away, so I have some optimism that this gets us back to baseline.
