Jerry Jones whines about Seahawks for increased penalties

[gowazzu02]

The thing about Seattle is they're good enough to adjust. They have ELITE defensive backs. It's going to hurt them from time to time of course. but its going to hurt other teams with not as good of dbacks way more.....

It's not the defensive contact that stands to hurt the Seahawks, it's the offensive holding/hands to the face. Have you seen the lack of discipline on that line over the years? Look for even more scrambles from Wilson because of it. They lack good technique to block properly and either they end up with boatloads of calls and are always digging out of holes because of it, or more defense gets through and Wilson is running for his life.

Well if only the Seahawks were committing illegal holding by the defensive backs last year, then the other teams should simply revert back to how they played last year, and then only the Seahawks will be hurt by the new rule emphases this year. Right?
