at least unnecessary roughness is down. I've noticed a lot of big hits go without flag this year.

Interesting that defensive pass interference is down and offensive is up.

I approve of the increase in offensive, receivers get away with much less. A good bunch of the illegal contacts are still total balogna

Illegal Contact is a ridiculous rule. If the ball is not in the air, receivers should be fair game to bump and push off their route. It would make the game much more exciting and easier to watch from a defensive point of view

As long as the rules are consistently enforced, IDC.

After watching the Seahawks DBs abuse WRs last season, a change was definitely needed.

Meh. I'm not a fan of 50-57 shootouts.

I am sorry, but when you are literally holding your breath on every 3rd down incomplete pass, that is not what's best for business. The NFL should thank their lucky stars for Fantasy Football inflating the living crap out of their viewership numbers.
