On NFL Network just showed Jerry Jones talking about Pads in Practice.

IF I heard correctly....Did Jerry say that over %75 of teams didnt practice in pads during the week? Sorry have the TV going but on the computer reading the Zone.

So is practicing in pads overrated during the season? Have coaches already adapted ? We have heard Bellicheat likes to practice in pads....but what about GB?

Opinions?

With these new rule changes.....how does that affect JG? Less Pads hight tempo? longer practices?

Jason said they will be able to practice in pad up to 4 hours in a day and at least 1 hour in non pads. Jason will be able to do what he needs to do.

During the season teams will be able to practice in pads 1 day out of the week but when you look at reg season workouts that is pretty much how most do it anyways. Monday is a day off, Tuesday they review film, Weds or Thursday you go out in pads
 
No it is not overrated it showed last year, it shows in how good NE has been year in year out. The Steelers use pads most teams do not do pads everyday that is just to much strain on the body but at least one day a week during the season helps imo get guys ready for hitting. The team was way more physical after we went to Wednesday in pads
 
I dont know the rules....but then its ok to practice once a week in pads during the season? Thats the limit? Or if I misread something last week I thought there was a limit to 14 total...so there will be a few weeks we cant...

Anyhow...I agree that we need to practice in pads.....and I wish they didnt get rid of two-a-days. But then again....seems like JG will just run longer practices.
