"Make it, take it" rule in effect tomorrow at Probowl as a test. (Onside kick alternative)

SuperKid said

I'm wondering if they do institute this rule, if that means they are completely eliminating the Onside Kick as an option. Or if you can choose between one the two as an alternative?

It does make sense to limit 1 attempt per game, only if you are down to prevent abuse and really save it for desperate moments.

I don't know how you could actually eliminate the onside kick. It's just a function of the fact that the ball is live until the receiving team touches it. I suppose you could say that teams can't intentionally do it, but then you introduce more subjectivity into a sport that needs less of it. Teams would just try the Justin Tucker onside instead.
