They could counteract the disadvantage to offenses by allowing holding by the offense in the tackle box. This would have the extra benefit of protecting backs better from being blindsided.
It's hard to gauge the effects of these kinds of changes without letting them play out, but I for one would love to see the NFL try this combination for a year.
