Interesting day at NFL officiating clinic. Biggest point of emphasis for 2014..Illegal contact and defensive holding. More offense!
10:40pm - 18 Jul 14 NFL says they are offsetting this emphasis with an emphasis on calling offensive pass interference. Not an even trade in my opinion. 10:46pm - 18 Jul 14 |

The NFL looked at what the NBA did to open up offense and is copying.
Sometimes it is needed (NHL when they got rid of the two line pass rule, lowering the mound in baseball) other times it is not (the goalie trapezoid) |

YEP!!! They were talking on Fox Sports Radio last night about how aggressive the Seattle defense plays and I told my Wife, "you watch, they'll crack down this year because poor, poor, Peyton got his shit shoved in" |

i heard somewhere where, Carroll told them to bump and be disruptive as much as possible that the ref's wont call it all the time. Im guessing this is why we are see'ing this.
Im sure the NFL was pissed that the Bronco's got their ass pushed in. |

They will milk Manning for whatever he is worth-they wouldl tape him to a dolly and wheel him out there if they could. I am surprised they don't put the manning rule in writing- You cant touch him- it has been an unwritten rule for years with the refs protecting him. |

The big difference with Manning is that you simply cannot even brush against his WR's. Hell, covering them too closely is often enough to draw a flag. I know in 2004-2006 no QB had more 3rd down conversions on penalties than Manning. I didn't pay any attention after that, but from what I've seen those particular manning rules are still in place. |

Defenses have adapted. Most good defenses have countered the rules by simply interfering on every single play, knowing the refs won't call it 2 or 3 times in a row. Last two SB champions led the league in pass interference. |

The NFL wants offense because people find offense more exciting.
