I fully understand the "Keep players safe" arguement but no one could possibly think that having 300 pound men, mauling the hell out of one another on the gridiron would be good for their brain health.

I think we've also seen a notable rise in lower body injuries ever since more teams have moved to turf. I also agree that the high scoring games is what drives casual fan interest.

I thought the rules were okay in the mid 2000's. I'd be okay with going back to that.
