There will be no rule changes that don't increase the amount of subjectivity introduced into the game.
As an ex-DE, I'm still wondering how we find ourselves in a position where the rules dictate that the only safe place to hit the QB is in his junk.
It's ridiculous. The sport can absolutely be officiated in an objective manner that emphasizes safety and doesn't allow for concussive hits where guys are launching head and shoulders first into a guy's head.
It's an interesting study. Makes me wonder how much of it is cultural vs. business-related (i.e., a desire for higher scoring games which allegedly increases viewership and thus, increases advertising revenue.)
