He saw the Leon Sandcastle commercial while watching the Super Bowl and will attempt to sneak back into college under a new assumed alias.

For me, I just don't like where the game is going. It completely favors one side of the ball and that's unfair. The NFL is becoming the arena league. 4,000 yards passing isn't even a big deal anymore and now we have guys near 5,000 every year. The QB's are over protected to the point that it's absurd, wr's can take two steps before they can be hit, pass interference is a joke, a lot of the helmet to helmet calls look like routine hits. Sean Taylor would be the most fined player in the league if he was still playing. Yeah I'll still watch cause I love football, but all these things I mention just water it down for me.

Have to agree with you . The rookie QB's of today put up numbers the HOF QBs could'nt even come close to in the early-mid 70's .

Yet five of you guys said you like the rule that stops a defender from making a certian type of tackel?Yes I'm old school I want hitting ...from the QB to the running backs to the Wr's hit them all I say!
These rules are coming from the owners to protect their investment.

The horse collar rule is protecting the players from a serious leg injury. Letting a wr make a "football move" before he can be hit isn't football.

Again stopping the hits on a QB at the knees is also protecting the player from a serious leg injury,yet people bitch becuase it's Brady that was the example,people are for one and against the other.

The hit on Carson Palmer and Brady should never be illegal hits. The NFL goes out of the way to protect it's stars, we know that. To me that compromises the integrity of football.

Here's a very telling stat of todays video game league. Matthew Stafford has basically thrown for 5,000 yards two years in a row. His name will be next to Dan Mariono's in the record books.
