Shady Slim Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 so we’ve got the robey-coleman rule now after the pass interference change from nickell robey-coleman’s actions during the nfccg so brings to mind the question, what are some other rule changes that are the x-player rule, named from an incident or certain play where one player did something or consistently did something forcing the rule change? and further what are some proposed rule changes you think we need that are the x-player rule? my steelers have given you the ryan shazier rule recently that got rid of the spear tackles, as well as don’t forget the hines ward rule for blindside blocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
