The NFL tabled a discussion on hair length and didn’t act on a proposal that would have allowed Wild Card playoff entrants with better records than Division champions to host playoff games.
But the league did eliminate the force-out rule allowing receivers to be credited with a catch if the referee judged they would have come down in bounds without defensive contact.
The league also voted to allow the team winning the pre-game coin toss to defer its decision to the second half and to eliminate the 5-yard facemask penalty. The 15-yard flagrant, twisting of the facemask penalty still remains. Does that mean minor contact with the facemask is now okay?
And, after the debacle in the Browns/Ravens game last season, owners agreed to extend instant replay to field goal reviews.
