Request

As the KR isn't working as intended, I'd like to request that no kickoffs are returned at all until things are better (unless they're short of the endzone, of course), as they never seem to get back to the 20, and often end inside the 15 and even around the 10.

As fas as kickoff returns, the issue as far as I can see is that the first man seems to be unblockable. Often there will be two or three blockers in front of the returner and this first man will go through like nothing to make the tackle.

I disagree. As long as there is a level playing field, I think it should stay as it is. As long as all teams have to deal with the same situation, I don't think there is a problem.

As far as KRs go, specifically, I did ask quite a while ago that JDB look into it. He said that KR and PR logic are the same, but they obviously are not the same from what I've seen. He did say he'd look into it, but I don't remember seeing any updates on it.

This is the thread... like I said, there hasn't been an update.

It would still be a level playing field, it affects everyone equally

Actually, no, I don't think it's a level playing field, since KRs at present introduce a random effect (returning vs not returning the kickoff from the endzone) that costs a team 5-10 yards and is unrelated to any skill. That's why I would like auto TBs, to even the playing field.
