Steelers' HOF corner Mel Blount was too good at the bump and run, resulting in the rule getting changed on physical contact with receivers past 5 yards in 1977. Is it that time again? On one hand, it's impressive Philly can keep doing it. Hurts plus the OL plus the push = near unstoppable. At the same time, it's almost too dominant. I lean towards a rule change.
