Re: New helmet conatct rule/proposal...I agree with Emmit Smith.
This will totally nueter the running game.
Picture a back hitting an open hole.
He sees daylight and turns on the burners, just as hes getting up to speed a linebacker and a safety block his path.
Knowing that he cannot lower his head and plow for a few more yards he slows down and turns his shoulder to the defenders and they knoock him backwards.
What would have been a 12 yard gain is now a 7 yard gain.
They may as well be taught to slide.
