Are NFL Rules Becoming Too Soft?

[Sheba]

Many fans argue that new rules protecting quarterbacks and wide receivers are making the game too soft. Do you think player safety is worth the trade-off, or is the physicality of football being lost? How do you see the balance between safety and preserving the game’s toughness.

I feel the NFL is trying to balance player safety with maintaining the intensity of the game. Some might argue that certain rules, like penalties for hard hits, make the game softer, but player health is crucial, especially given the long-term effects of injuries like concussions. The league's focus on safety is understandable, but I can see how it might be frustrating for fans who enjoy the physicality.
