Only other thing is the kicker will need to have a bit of free safety in him. If the returner breaks the initial scrum, the kicker is the last line of defense. Unless one of the forward players drops back??

This could actually be fun.
The kicker as a tackler?

Hmm. That sounds dangerous. Kickers are not used to tackling. We'll have to add subsection 3-0012 to rule 442A, declaring that, in the event the returner breaks past the first line of defense post-thirty-five yard line, he can only advance the ball at a forty-five degree angle when the kicker approaches to make the tackle. Stiff-arming by the returner is illegal, and once the kicker touches, with both hands, simultaneously, the area between the returner's shoulders and knees, the returner is declared down and the play dead.
