Maybe that was designed on purpose. If the ball gets into the end zone, it's spotted at the 25 yard line. A lot of the time by having the ball end up before it reaches the end zone, the returner has to run with it, and he gets tackled before the 25 yard line.

This is EXACTLY what the special teams KO philosophy has been. Take advantage of Gamble's ability to throw up a hang-time of around 4.4 or longer and try to pin the return team deeper than the 25.
