Around the NFL - 2018

He thought there was a comma in there.

huge rule change in the nfl...no longer can you lower your head and initiate contact not helmet to helmet contact but lower your head for ANY contact offense or defense

[hbionic]

But its natural to lower the head if you are leading with the shoulder.

Is this included in the rule?

[ice grillin you]

im not sure

i feel like they are going to have to review almost damn play now

[hbionic]

Maybe they can schedule a game during replays.

[QB Eagles]

Not sure guys who have been playing for 25 years can just flip a switch on how they make contact.

Someone at the NFL is dreaming of the day there's no head contact at all, meaning there's no more concussion scandals, and the players can go without helmets and become as marketable as NBA players.

At least the Eagles won the last Super Bowl contested with actual NFL football being played.

If the players weren't so dementia-ed, they would demand a CBA that helped care for them after their playing days are done. They should take a cue from how well our veterans are cared for when they return.

[QB Eagles]

No more meaningless end-of-game PATs. Good rule change.

Overall a very good owners meeting by the competition committee, but that head-lowering rule has the potential to overshadow everything. If they implement it in a sloppy way, it's going to cause more chaos than the catch rule they just fixed.

No.  farg them.  They know the deal going in.  They're gladiators and they're there for my entertainment. 

And farg you for being such a raging hypocrite too.

when have i ever been pro brain damage?

[Rome]

Judging from your posts over the years, I'll say all your life. 

[QB Eagles]

Big Red may never win a Super Bowl, but he crushes the coach photo every year. Even if it looks like he has edema in his leg.

Looks like Belichick was out ransacking the rooms of the other HCs.
