Now everyone is going to be on the same side of the field, 5-yard neutral zone, "Landing Zone" is basically the Redzone. If the kick doesn't hit the Landing Zone, you're penalized (endzone = 30yd line, sideline = 40yd line like always).
So it seems like there will be an incentive to at least keep the ball in play. That, at the very least, should be better than what it's been which is watching a guy kick, hearing a ref whistle, and then we can play football again.

Seems odd, given they tried hard to eliminate returns not too long ago.
