I am going to go back an watch some of the Morris highlight tapes on you tube to see how it will affect our runner. For a guy who never goes down I want to see how much I that is due to maybe that or just his own beastlyness.

I can't remember ALFMO really leading with the crown of the helmet. He gets low & absorbs blows but doesn't look to deliver a hit.
I think this rule will help him as a runner. D-players cant try to blow up RB's anymore. ALFMO is difficult to tackle straight up.
My main concern is with the refs and how they will decide to enforce this rule. I feel any big hit delivered by a RB now will lead to a penalty.
