Just line up at the 25 and go from there. Or let the receiving team decide if they want to do a kickoff or skip it. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it definitely takes away a game-changing element of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be just as happy starting at the 25 every time - no kickoffs at all. Kickoffs are unnecessary to the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
