This is a good rule change. Too many times we have seen critical forceout calls made that were strictly a judgement call. The biggest problem is that it was not open to review. Now any sideline reception will be open to review, and two feet will have to come down inbounds.

Having Landry playing deep safety might be an advantage on deep sideline throws where he uses his range to force the receiver out. Lord, what might have been with Landry AND Taylor playing a 2-deep zone.
