Bengals QB Carson Palmer, who spent the offseason rehabbing from a leg injury resulting from a vicious hit in last year's playoffs, thinks the new rule goes too far.
"It's nice that they want to protect us, but there's a limit to how far they should go to do that," said Palmer. "They should just allow us to play but forbid anyone from coming within 10 yards of us. That way we could stay on the field and let the fans bask in our awesomeness but avoid having anybody touch our fragile little bodies. Believe me, the last thing the fans want to see in a football game is people getting tackled."
