I don't know for sure, but I have a feeling that's not true. I think a rule is a rule...but again, just a guess on my part.

Whats gonna stop them as long as they are all on the ball ?
I don't klnow, might be something against it, maybe not.
From Wikipedia:
"Changes were made regarding kickoffs to limit injuries. First, kickoffs will be moved from the 30 back up to the 35-yard line, repealing a 1994 rule change. In addition, players on the kickoff coverage team can not line up more than 5 yards behind the kickoff line, minimizing running starts and thus reducing the speed of collisions.[39] Other changes were also proposed, but a number of players and coaches expressed concern they would actually significantly reduce, if not eliminate, the number of kickoff returns.[40][41] Proposals that would have brought touchbacks out to the 25 instead of the 20, and eliminated all wedge blocks were not adopted."

Hardly any Patriots starters played on Thursday, I wonder if they're all getting cut, also?
Ochocinco has practiced everyday of training camp, so far.
I'd give fat Albert a 10-15% chance of getting cut, Chad on the other hand has a 0.0% chance of being cut. What a ridiculous rumor started by Dan Pompei.

Belichick doesn't trade draft picks to send messages. What a stupid thing to write by a guy who doesn't seem to know how things work up in New England.
Notable stat from last night: Texans defense set a franchise preseason record with seven sacks versus the Jets.
But of course, it's "only preseason", so the Jet's siv on the offensive line is nothing to be concerned about.

The 2008 Detroit Lions were 4-0 in the preseason....then went oh-n-16 .... JUST SAYING!

Look, I understand the final outcome of a preseason game is meaningless, but there ARE little nuances that can be learned from in the preseason.
Really? the 1st game of preseason.....?! And unless the Browns scored ALL 27 points in the 1st 2 offensive series, Colt had very little to do with it. Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

Not to sure about the Jets offensive line but I would expect huge improvement with the Texans defense. Say what you want about Wade Phillips but he has had a lot of success as a defensive coach.
Wow, this is the weird thing about preseason games...the teams are wearing the same uniforms as regular season games, the fans are paying the same price as regular season games...but that's where the relationship to the regular season ends.
The main outcome of preseason games is individual battles between players fighting for the same position on a team...more often than not backup positions. And, of course, injuries.
Most of the rest is not what it seems.
