There's plenty of inconsistent rulings as it is, a few more won't hurt that much.

Talking about the one that GG posted, where you swivel/twist a player more so, the issue with that is if you tackle from a certain angle it will always result in a kind of swizvel/twist due to momentum of the two players, can also see offensive players start twisting their bodies in a tackle to draw a penalty.
I feel like it will be lowering the helmet for contact. almost never called and when it is you will feel hard done by.It's going to be the inconsistency adjudicating it which is the worry.
Saw someone say on twitter that the Metcalf chase down tackle on Budda Baker would draw a penalty under these rules. That really sucks if so.
Understand that, but if a player is tackled behind the LOS on 4th down could absolutely see it happening.If you were teams, I would be really strong on addressing this up front and call it out, they're just going to increase the chances of hurting themselves 10-fold.
Owners will never vote to make all fields turf. that will have most of them have to spend money.The conspiracy theorist in me says its just another rule open to interpretation that the NFL can use to fix matches with. Handy. ..if they gave a s**t about player safety they would only play on turf fields.
Its ridiculous. If the Raiders can find a way to make it happen in a retractable dome with one of the poorer NFL owners the rest can. Just pure greed.Owners will never vote to make all fields turf. that will have most of them have to spend money.
Metlife installed a grass field last year for a soccer game then went back to the same old turf that players are vocal against for the NFL season.Its ridiculous. If the Raiders can find a way to make it happen in a retractable dome with one of the poorer NFL owners the rest can. Just pure greed.
So did Tepper. POS.Metlife installed a grass field last year for a soccer game then went back to the same old turf that players are vocal against for the NFL season.
Meanwhile the Bears redid their grass to one that players on both sides said felt like one of the best fields in the league.So did Tepper. POS.
