The NFL

The NFL this week has made more changes towards the helmet to helmet hitting going on. Once again they single out the Pittsburge Steelers and the way they play. The Steelers got once another costly penalty for hitting and almost cost them the game. When I saw the same hits in other games and they made no call. This just goes and proves my point that the NFL is only cracking down on the Steelers. I feel that if they are going to call the penalty they need to start doing it all around the league and not just single out one team, even though they know that's the way they play the game and have for years. If I was the Steelers I would not change a thing that I do. Tell my players to go out and play the way we know how to play. The only way they are going to solve this problem is by going out and taking care of it themselves.

Steelers Game

I think that it was outrageous the number of penalties called on the Steelers Sunday. When a team has more penalties then the opposing team has offensive yards, I think there's something else going on with the refs.  The other thing is that they are trying to take away the Steelers style of play, they are smash mouth in your face type of football. The refs and league is trying to change they way they play. Other teams don't get penalties for the same type of hits as the Steelers make. I think the commissioner doesn't like the Steelers and their style of football, which has been around for year, and also he doesn't like that they are winning and wants to put a stop to it. My opinion is to have the team owners pay the fines for "illegal" hits and have the coach say "Guys do what we do best. Go out and crack some heads and hit how we know how." That would be the only way to put a stop to them singling out the Steelers.
