Football as we know it is Over

[Bilbo Saggins]

A lot of Steelers have a history of spearing - which is already illegal but wasn't being enforced evenly for some reason. Beyond cracking down on spearing more, this rule may cancel out a lot of the "hats on the ball" fumbles(like Ross's) - I'm not sure if that's the intent or not, but if there is a sudden dip in fumbles we'll have an idea as to why.
