- Defensive players who are knock down on the ground cannot lurch out and tackle Quarterbacks while they are on the ground (this change apparently was brought about by a 2008 regular season injury to a quarterback in that situation)
_The initial force of a blindside block can't be delivered by a helmet, forearm or shoulder to an opponent's head or neck. An illegal blindside block will bring a 15-yard penalty.
_Initial contact to the head of a defenseless receiver also will draw a 15-yard penalty.
"Our clear movement is to getting out of the striking in the head area," Pereira said. "We're reading about injuries that say spinal and vertebrae. We've got to try something."
_On kickoffs, no blocking wedge of more than two players will be allowed. A 15-yard penalty will go to a violating team.
_Also on kickoffs, the kicking team can't have more than five players bunched together pursuing an onside kick. It will be a 5-yard penalty.
This is a joke.. soon qbs will be wearing flags on there waists
