Barkley probably would be ideal...same with Henry.   But I'm saying here... you are only fighting for a few extra yards.

Unless you bull your way and break tackles

Punch a hole in the line and let the guy behind you run through it. Almost like a lead blocking running play

So hangtime is no longer important? Maybe they form new styles of kicks.

I'm running through the L gap HAHAHA

What about double team blocking and trying to get together forming wedges to open up the return?

I guess not since then you'd have 21 guys all collected at the 15

Well nobody can move until the kick is caught anyway

Look at this... all 10 cover guys are watching the return man and know exactly where the ball is.  He actually finds a hole to the bottom here...but look how that 2nd layer of 5 guys are right there incase he broke past layer one.  

The old way always had guys flying past...they were contain in a certain gap... if you broke through a gap...that could be it..because half the team or more were running full speed and took themselves out of the play.   

Not here...if you run at me..I'll go attack...you run away, I'll go layer behind my guys.  But I'm always in the play.

Which if your back is to the returner how do you know when you’re able to move? You can only go off the kicking team moving..so then you move? I don’t really know much on this.

IDK I assume NFL kickers are better than XFL ones and you still kick into the EZ

Why are all the blockers going backwards? You’d think they’d attack and want to engage as fast as possible.

Right... all these things that mattered before...right out the window.

Backs are to the kicker and they can't see the ball flight either. It's going to be tricky because players will move before it's touched so I see alot of downtime penalites for "moving too soon"

Because if they miss... then the return man is going to get killed. 

But this is what I'm saying....it's like you need 10 sumo wrestlers and Derrick Henry to return.

So basically the runner got to the 30 which was where all his guys were standing anyhow 😆

Right... I think you are getting all excited for returns...while I'm thinking it's like another rushing play.  Is it really that exciting if they return it to the 29 instead of the 21?  

It's not like kicking to Hester while the coverage has to sprint downfield.  

It's action...but it's basically a glorified rushing play. Not return like we are used to.

Highlight reels. "And he's leading the league with a +4 yards on returns, just AWESOME"

Just figuring it will be more action than kicking through the endzone near every time.
