No contact drills is brutal for linemen. Tackling is one thing, but no chance to

practice live technique and schemes for line is rough. At least you can do 7-on7 work with other positions.

And BYU dominated the trenches like I don’t think I’ve ever seen.

All that to say, it contributed but in no way was THE reason why navy got demolished.

The NFL has preseason games that don’t count. They don’t want to stop that.

Again, mostly for the purpose of cutting the roster down to the right number

Yes the first 2-3 games they don’t but by the last one, they play a half.

Running backs need some credit too

Whether it contributed or not, part of winning is not making boneheaded coaching

My point is that this move is not necessarily bonehead. All of the NFL always
