Leading with head rules?
Ok. I'm watching the Jags vs. the Girls and noticed something. The NFL is cracking down on defenders leading with their heads but what about offensive players? If you watch MJD he launches himself like a missile against defenders quite a bit. You would think the NFL would be just as interested in this type of play by offensive players as well. Just an observation.

Re: Leading with head rules?
Ya, I was thinking the same thing. They'll never do anything about it, IMO. The NFL loves offense, bottom line.

Re: Leading with head rules?
I was on the phone with my dad and he swears in the Dallas/Jacksonville game there was incidental helmet-to-helmet between two defenders and a flag was thrown. Don't know if that is true but if so that's a horrible call.

Re: Leading with head rules?
The other thing I've noticed is that they are calling it a lot more when a defensive player launches himself below the shoulders, and then the offensive player ducks *after* the defender has committed to the hit, and as a result there's contact to the helmet and a penalty. That, IMO, is wrong.

Re: Leading with head rules?
It's gonna be like the NBA. If you got the ball, just run into somebody and they'll call a penalty on them.
