NFL just outlawed Oklahoma drill as well as half line drill

game is becoming less and less physical. I've heard rumors that they're looking at other sorts of blocks as well (trap) and they are trying to completely overhaul run blocking technique.

basketball on grass is the new hope for the future, I suppose.
