I've noticed the whole team seems to be tackling better this year, keeping their heads up and wrapping up instead of looking to just blow someone up. The money saved here would pay for a very good RG or RT for the year, if they can find one. Iloka will catch on somewhere else, hopefully not Pissburgh, so good luck to him.
I have too. That said, it's kinda looking that way around the league as a whole. This new rule may have the effect I thought it would, i.e. leading to fundamentally sound tackling versus looking for highlight reel killshots and whiffing. The new rule may just make the game better.
