I've heard they've weakened the Roughing penalty this year. It has to be on purpose,a hard enough hit, and late enough to count as the 15.

That's at least a start, if true ... link please

Once again, the NFL has not done anything about the 15-yard roughing the passer penalty. I have thought for years that they need to add a 5-yard "running into the QB" penalty for those accidental, incidental situations that shouldn't be game changing.

So, no matter how great NFL football is, we can be assured that there will be a handful of games that will turn on some accidental, late contact with the QB on 3rd and long, giving the offense a first down and 15 yards late in the game when they should have been punting.

This is a completely appropriate post in this thread.

Rookie running back Adrian Peterson has impressed in his first camp, and coaches say he might also be the team's best quarterback

Even tho Jackson will be a stud, this was really funny to me.

New head coach Mike Tomlin has punished players who show up late to meetings or practices by making them share a laundry basket with running back Najeh Davenport.

That and this:

Several Patriots appear surprised at how much Randy Moss' skills have diminished. Especially Reche Caldwell

Wide receiver Roy Williams says that if the score means nothing again this year, the Lions will go 16-0

Brett Favre and his receivers spent much of camp working on timing patterns in which Favre heaves the ball wildly down the field and his receivers try to pull it out of the air just before the defense intercepts it

Teammates have begun calling Cadillac Williams "Yugo," "Hyundai" or "1976 AMC Pacer"

Coaches say Shaun Alexander is back to 100 percent and can run out of bounds as quickly as ever.
