    That lockout is looking better and better.. beats watching this watered down nonsense. How is anyone on defense supposed to you know.. play defense? Don't hit the running back while he's running, don't hit the receiver when he's trying to catch, don't hit the QB when he's throwing.. so.. why is the defense even out there anymore? Bring on the lockout, the league is a joke.

    Some of us hate Fisher, some of us loved Fisher. Some of us hate Young, some of us love Young.

    Can we all agree that we hate Roger Goodell?

    I'm up for a campaign to remove him from office like Egypt did their dictator.

    Who wants to bet there isn't a single rule change for the safety of defensive players?

    I might be wrong, but I'm pretty sure this is only for illegal hits to the head or neck area. As in, in those situations you cant hit the head.

    And you could be right, but it is not clear. Plus you cannot hit the QB in the head period unless he is running or tucking the ball. Heck you barely touch the helmet now and it's a flag. It just doesn't make sense the way it reads.

    Plenty of times last season two helmets just grazed each other and the laundry came out. As far as what somebody was saying about the defense not getting any rules changed, I believe the NFL thinks only the offense takes hits.

    Offense sells tickets, let's not forget that.
