Didn’t hear this until today. They are looking at the stiff arm to the facemask as a legal maneuver. Without details, it may be premature to speculate but if they get rid of it, good riddance.

I’m as old school as anyone, but why have ball carriers been immune from what everyone else isn’t. With apologies to Walter Payton fans, this has to go.

I have been very critical of the rash of rule changes, but I must admit, I approve of this.
