NFL RULE CHANGES FOR 2019
2019 NFL RULES CHANGES PASS INTERFERENCE REPLAY REVIEW Beginning in 2019, both offensive and defensive pass interference calls are reviewable. Plays can be reviewed whether the penalty was called on the field or not. This rule change is subject to a one-year trial period. Explore the 2019 NFL rulebook. A pass interference ruling will be changed in replay only when there is clear and obvious visual evidence that the on-field ruling was incorrect. To change the ruling on the field, there must be clear and obvious evidence that contact “significantly hindered” or “did not significantly hinder” an opponent. See full details on the 2019 replay rule here. BLINDSIDE BLOCK Owners voted to expand protection of defenseless players by eliminating the blindside block. It is now prohibited for a blocker to initiate forcible contact with his head, shoulder or forearm when his path is toward or parallel to his own end line. The penalty for an illegal blindside block is a loss of 15 yards and an automatic first down. KICKOFF Owners voted to make permanent the kickoff rules changes that were implemented in 2018. The restrictions resulted in a 35% decrease in concussions on kickoff plays when compared to the 2017 season. 2019 NFL kickoff rules. Here are the NFL kickoff rules: The kickoff team must have five players on each side of the ball and cannot line up more than one-yard from the restraining line. For example, the kicking team will line up at the 34-yard line for a kickoff from the 35-yard line. At least two players must be lined up outside the yard-line number and two players between the inbounds lines (hash marks) and the yard-line number. At least eight players of the receiving team must be lined up in the 15-yard “setup zone” prior to kickoff; only three receiving-team players can remain outside of the setup zone. No wedge blocks are permitted. A wedge block is defined as “two or more players intentionally aligning shoulder-to-shoulder within two yards of each other, and who move forward together in an attempt to block for the runner.” Double-team blocks can only be performed by members of the receiving team who were originally lined up in the set-up zone at the time of the kick. Until the ball is touched or hits the ground, no player on either the receiving or kicking team may block within the 15-yard area from the kicking team’s restraining line. On an onside kick, the kicking team may not block in the first 10 yards. The ball is dead if it is not touched by the receiving team and touches the ground in the end zone (touchback). BOOTH REVIEWS In addition to pass interference, owners voted to expand the number of plays subject to booth reviews to include: If a penalty flag is thrown that would negate a touchdown, the play will be reviewed first to determine if there was a score before the defense elects to enforce the foul. All two-point conversion reviews will now be initiated by the Replay Official. The plays are no longer challengeable by a coach. This is true regardless of the call on the field. Visit the NFL Video Rulebook. Other rules changes for 2019 include: CELEBRATIONS Beginning in 2019, only players in uniform may enter the field to celebrate. If anyone other than a player in uniform enters the field, it is a penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct — loss of 15 yards and an automatic first down. PLAYER DISQUALIFICATIONS Owners voted to expand the authority of game officials to disqualify players for acts committed during a game. In 2018, designated members of the officiating team could disqualify a player for non-football acts (such as unsportsmanlike conduct) if a flag was thrown related to that act. In 2019, this will be expanded to also include any football act. PENALTY ENFORCEMENT ON TOUCHDOWN PLAYS The offense may now apply any penalties committed by the defense to either the ensuing kickoff or to the succeeding extra point or two-point conversion plays. POINTS OF EMPHASIS USE OF HELMET The Officiating Department will continue to emphasize the Use of Helmet rule adopted in 2018. Video Rulebook: Use of Helmet The officiating standards for the Use of Helmet rule are: Lowering the head (not to include bracing for contact) Initiating contact with the helmet to any part of an opponent. Contact does not have to be to an opponent’s head or neck area — lowering the head and initiating contact to an opponent’s torso, hips, and lower body, is also a foul. Making contact on an opponent (both offense and defense) Players can be ejected for Use of Helmet fouls — and all ejections will be reviewed by senior officials in Art McNally GameDay Central in New York. The standards for ejection are, if: The player lowers his helmet to establish a linear body posture prior to initiating and making contact with the helmet; The player delivering the blow had an unobstructed path to his opponent; The contact was clearly avoidable The Committee is in support of issuing warning letters for any Use of the Helmet fouls in the interior line or where there is little space between players. OFFENSIVE HOLDING Offensive holding will be more strictly enforced this season, particularly on the back side of the run play or line of scrimmage. Referees will closely monitor play at the line of scrimmage to ensure that offensive players do not materially restrict opponents or alter the defender’s path or angle of pursuit. Material restrictions include but are not limited to: grabbing or tackling an opponent hooking, jerking, twisting, or turning him pulling him to the ground. … Continue reading NFL RULE CHANGES FOR 2019

If we were playing an office pool,(which we ARE NOT). The object is to score the most points. To obtain the score YOU rank the teams by how confident you are a team will win its game.

You add up the TOTAL CORRECT PICKS.. That would be your score. We use the Monday night (Last game played) as a TIE BREAKER.

SEVENTEEN weeks; FIFTEEN OTs . When you check my picks. You will notice I picked the PATRIOTS as my lowest pick. I really feel they will fall this weekend, despite the numbers. ALSO Ihave a strong feeling th surging feel good COLTS are so numb with confidence; I picked them to UPSET the Chiefs at home. I Guess you could say I overestimated the COLTS. Who would think KC would have come out and play like a PROFESSIONAL team. And he COLTS would play like Amatuers. Maybe the pressure of the importance of the game would affect them that badly. Even the VEGAS odd makers were taken aback by the lackluster performance. BUT that is why they play the game.

Welcome to our 6th year of NFL CONFIDENCE PICKS !!!!! This also marks the 99th SEASON OF THE NFL!! I have a confession: I prematurely POSTED the PATRIOTS as the winner of their game with the DOLPHINS. Who? Would think the DOLPHINS would be able to cover 69 yards in 7 seconds. Hats off to the DOLPHINS, and their fans. BY THE WAY. I have to wonder how many of the LOYAL DOLPHIN FANS either left the game before that GAME WINNING PLAY, or turned the game off.

This puts him in a 5-way tie for second longest FG; behind MATT PRATER who hit a 64 yd FG for the BRONCOS ( in the thin air of Denver) in 2013. Four weeks; SIX OTs . Yeah we have had 6 OTs One each of the first 3 weeks and 3 this week. Is it because of the rule changes or are we seeing more parity in the league. The COLTS situatioa. Tie or win. USUALLY, I would favor going for the win. HOWEVER in the present status of the COLTS, I would have welcomed a tie. I didn’t feel they have what it takes at this time of the season, to risk a win. Had they been deeper in the Texans field I probably would go for the win. But from their field position, there is just NO WAY.

We will continue to get a positive score for correct predictions. EXAMPLE: if you scored 1 pt on the first game and you had 15 pts on the second game and lost you would still have a 1 on regular scoring. 1. HOWEVER. with the same scenario new scoring system would result with a –14 score. I will fill in my picks Thursday. Until then feel free to: Just copy and paste for your own Fun Pool Use. Or to see if you can beat me. IF YOU SEE I MADE A MIS-COPY OF THE GAMES AND TIMES FEEL FREE TO EMAIL ME AND TELL ME I GOOFED. GOOD LUCK TO ALL.
