New Kickoff Rule - fair catch

[Anticallihan]

Is it just me — or does this rule not change anything?

Team kicks short of endZone — now runner gets choice of running or taking 25 based on what he sees.

I feel like coaches will still kick short to see if they can more often than not get ball within 25. Right?

only benefit is runner may faircatch more often.
