Between the Philadelphia Eagles\u2019 Tush Push play and their past adjustments to the kickoff format, it\u2019s safe to say that the NFL doesn\u2019t always get things right when discussing potential changes to their rulebook. After all, nobody actually feels safer because the league decided to ban celebrations that include \u201cviolent gestures,\u201d i.e., shooting and holstering a finger gun.<\/p>\n
Of course, some rule changes have certainly proven to be more egregious than others. Hence why USA Today Sports allowed players to air some of their grievances by asking them what rules they would like to see changed. Suffice it to say, the list was anything but short.<\/p>\n
\u201cOffsides on the offense,\u201d Brock Purdy<\/a> insisted. \u201cThere\u2019s some times where guys are not lined up on the ball, and there\u2019s a flag that gets thrown for it where we\u2019re all like, \u2018Really?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n According to one of the NFL\u2019s most recognizable tight ends, Rob Gronkowski,<\/a> the league should also reconsider its approach towards pass interference. \u201cIt\u2019s kind of getting ridiculous,\u201d the former New England Patriot stated as he halfway rolled his eyes.<\/p>\n Everyone from New Orleans, Louisiana, all the way up to Denver, Colorado, is likely in agreement with him. The only issue, however, is that the league doesn\u2019t seem to have any plans to make a change to either offensive or defensive PI during this offseason.<\/p>\n Even though he was on the receiving end of his fair share of hits, the former Atlanta Falcon<\/a>, Michael Vick, added that the various ways in which you can incur a roughing the passer penalty \u2013 or not \u2013 have gotten out of hand. \u201cThat sh*t is so inconsistent, man.\u201d<\/p>\n
