NFL bans all chop blocks

....and all Denver D Linemen must absorb 4 chop blocks each before the first flag is thrown so the rest of the league can catch up

And that goes double for all Denver Olinemen and Alex Gibbs should have to take 10 chop blocks for each chop block that injured an opposing player. 20 for Jamal.

Let's chop-block away every 49ers Super Bowl chopionship.

What chop blocks were previously allowed? I only know of going low on someone already engaged in a block

We can certainly entertain this idea, however, if implemented, we would be required to give the Denver Broncos 8 3rd round supplementary draft picks for the 2017 season.

well you took away that 1st rounder from the Pats, maybe you could just give that pick to Denver as well to help even things up.

I saw a quote from Kubiak and indeed they said they would have to adjust. I hope it cutsdown on the injuries. Not sure if refs can keep up with all these rules when going full speed. Hard to see with all the activity going on during plays. Do they need another ref on the field just to watch for line play?

I think you couldn't double team a guy if at least one of the blockers did a chop block. Now I guess they are completely illegal (good rule change, btw)
