There is a price to be paid for everything. So, there is a price to be paid for safety. I think the cost is going to be large short term and a lot of controversy will happen. In time, players will change the way they play and there will be less players being ejected.

At the end of the day, this is a good thing for football. While getting this resolved, they need to start cracking down on PEDs so the players can begin go get smaller and it will reduce injuries even further. The NFL is beginning to crack down on PEDs and in the near future, players will become smaller.

I thought they did quite a bit of drug testing which, I assumed, covered PEDs?

I agree that this rule is an improvement and it could make some games very interesting if key players get ejected. Knowing the MAC refs....we could have a LOT to talk about this year!

NFL conducting population study of naturally occurring HGH levels in players because they do not have an HGH policy. One of the comments is true. This is like establishing an average THC level of a population by testing only pot smokers.

Until the size of a players is resolved, rule changes alone are not going to improve safety as much as possible.
