I'm sorry. As much as people loved watching players get murdered out there, I'm all for some sort of regulation against taking a guy's head off. Helmet under the chin should always be discouraged


Fair enough but some of the newer rules might as well prohibit anything but two hand touch football, especially when it comes to quarterbacks.

I think the general intent of these rules are good. It's just that the refs are allowed too much interpretation.

The blind-side block penalty is the first one that comes to mind. The guy is pursuing the play, but because of the angle you are on, you are not allowed to make a "legal" block because the hit may be too hard. Not only is it a bad rule, this is one of the most inconsistently called rules I have seen.
