I heard they have VERY FIRMLY asked the players not to go offsides, hit late, or block in the back. This is a marked difference from last year when they simply POLITELY asked the players not to commit any penalties.  ;)

Seriously though, I do not mind an occassional "agressive play" penalty (ie: Roughing the passer/ late hit) when it is in the context of playing with a high leve lof intensity, but the blockign in the back on returns and the offsides have to stop.

Roughing the passer or late hits are only good if the one who got hit does not get back up untill the game is over

I'm sure it's just being ignored...just like ballboys, helmet colors, and who the starting QB is.
