The NFL is going to stick to giving them the 25 for "safety" reasons on a kickoff. Giving the recovering defense the ball on the 1 pretty much means take it out as far as you can.... also, if no one recovers a fumble in the end zone, I think the offense should keep it just as though they fumbled it out of bounds.
