At this point my feelings to NFL rules are similar to my feelings about the tax code. Let’s throw the whole thing out and completely rewrite it simpler. The fact that at least 2 of the networks have former officials or heads of officiating on call shows you that the rules are too convoluted.
Technology can solve so many of these problems. G-force sensors can be easily implanted into player’s helmets which would unequivocally show if there was a helmet to helmet collision. A side effect is that they would also greatly improve player safety as we would know if there was a hit that could cause a concussion. Put a small sensor in each point of the ball that will show the exact position of the football at any given moment. It would be so easy to know if the football went past the goal line. More rules isn’t the fix, it’s more technology.

I agree too…..I don’t understand in the day where our government can track every citizen in this country – why the NFL a multibillion dollar business cannot invest in technology to determine dropped balls, instant replay from all angles, and helmets with sensors. Instead they put doctors on the sideline who look for symptoms – doctors who are paid for and by the NFL – the same guys who don’t want a marketable QB to miss a play.

If they ruled that hit intentional, they should have ejected the guy right there and then. If you are intentionally hurting someone, then that is assault and should be reported to law enforcement officials. This is the only way you are going to get this out of the game – or go back to the old fashion way and allow these hits – Just inform all players these hits will be allowed and you will be forced to keep your head up.
