NFL

People get up in arms as if the NFL changing the rules to influence the way the game is played is unprecedented.

Some stuff is more likely to injure players, so they change the rules. People have more fun watching the NFL all season when the stars are healthy. Maybe you don't get that wild flying tackle on a QB making a highlight, but you also get 40 more highlights from the QB who isn't on injured reserve the rest of the year.

Unpopular opinion: just change the rule so all you have to do is wrap up a QB if they're in the pocket and don't even tackle them anymore. Aaron Rogers getting injured on drive 1 is boring. I would've rather seen him play. Anthony Richardson was electric. I'd rather see him play. Guys like AR would probably still get injured because of how they play, but let QBs be safe from injury in the pocket and just wrap them up.

With the current rules protecting passers, that's essentially all linemen are doing, anyway. They are just falling down once they wrap them up which is kind of irrelevant. You could still try to whack the ball out of their hand if you wanted and "violently" wrap them up. Just don't bring them to the ground.

QB sneak? Boring. Just make it against the rules, who cares? lol.
