If you're going to enforce rules, enforce them consistently. It's almost like they pick punishments out of a hat. The enforcement is a huge joke. There are plenty of manufacturers out there who are testing safer equipment options. Many would argue that getting rid of hard facemasks is one way. Goodell has yet to mandate wearing mouthguards which is a simple solution toward reducing concussions. Hell, if you're worried about liability, create a concussion waiver system. If players are getting faster, then find ways to slow them down. And if we got back to teaching players how to tackle with their bodies instead of their shoulders, defenders would become better players. There are solutions out there. But that's not how Goodell works. Goodell likes to throw a bunch of shit at the wall and see what sticks instead of having a clear-cut plan.

OMG...You hate rule changes and tinkering with the game...but suggest doing something to make players SLOWER.
Sure, "teaching" them how to tackle better. Because players always execute the way they are taught. If the league as a whole wants to curb a behavior...they penalize it. But you don't like that.
