Back To Leather Helmets?
-
Is the NFL finally going to get serious about banning the use of helmets in tackling? After two serious injuries on one day -- including DeSean Jackson getting his bell rung so hard that he had memory loss -- the league is facing calls for suspensions because even with tougher rules and technical bans, all you get now is a penalty and maybe a fine. Defensive players complain that they need to use their heads to effectively stop opponents, but with injuries resulting, the league may have to do something. (New York Times)
