Although this change may not be huge for the audience, it is very different for the players. In the new rules, the kicker will not be able to sprint forward while playing or move before kick-off, while the catcher must not use a wedge formation during the return attack (refers to players playing forward side by side Open the way for returning players.) In addition, the area 15 yards before kicking the ball will be a non-contact area, and the returning player needs to have at least 8 players 15 yards from the ball. This is believed to not only allow some big forward players to be absent from the game because they will need more sensitive and quick players under the new rules. At the same time, the new rules can avoid some violent collisions that occurred during the latter part of the attack. The opening kicks under the new rules will be similar to those of abandoned kicks.
Mark Murphy, the packer's president, acknowledged the possibility of kicking the ball due to the danger of being eliminated. He said that the data showed that the players who suffered a concussion in the offensive and defensive play may be five times as common offense and defense. Rich McKay, chairman of the competitions committee, said that during the past three seasons, 71 cases of concussions occurred in offense and defense, and at least one third was due to the use of wedge formations www.onlinegameshop.com .
