These are the seven that were approved.

[list=1]

Permanently move the line of scrimmage for extra points to the defensive team’s 15-yard line and allow the defense to return any missed attempt.

Permit the offensive and defensive play callers on the coaching staffs to use the coach-to-player communication system regardless of whether they are on the field or in the coaches’ booth.

All chop blocks are now illegal.

Expand the horse collar rule to include when a defender grabs the jersey at the name plate or above and pulls a runner toward the ground.

Make it a foul for delay of game when a team attempts to call a timeout when it is not permitted to do so.

Eliminate the 5-yard penalty for an eligible receiver illegally touching a forward pass after being out of bounds and re-establishing himself inbounds, and make it a loss of down.

Eliminate multiple spots of enforcement for a double foul after a change of possession.[/list]

As Wade mentioned in another topic, this is going to change the running game, big time!

Soon it will be "flag football" where no one can be tackled.

More judgement calls for the refs. This is just going to get out of hand.

this doesn't eliminate the one on one cut blocks.

If you are going to go low, do it one on one, if you are going to double team, stay above the waist.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

We live in a world where we try to prevent all bad things from happening.

- Someone gets a bloody nose playing dodgeball? Ban dodgeball. (A lot of schools have done this.)
- Buster Posey gets hurt in a collision at the plate? Ban collisions at the plate.
-A few players in the Nba get fouled a lot because they can't shoot free throws? We need to come up with a rule to prevent this! While no rule has been instituted, it has been discussed.

Bad shit happens in life. You cant legislate all bad things away. But that's the mentality today.
