Earlier this year in the meeting of NFL Owners they had a suggestion of using 1 defensive player in the starting lineup to be equipped with a radio inside his helmet where the Defensive coordinator could then relay calls through that player rather than use the hand signals which would have left the playcalls deep within the teams on-field players much like the offense does with coach to QB communications.
When this vote took place to get this into the games this year it was only accepted by 22 of 32 owners - 24 votes was needed to accept the proposal.
If you look at it this way the owners - In particular up to 10 of them who voted NO are the reason why this stuff is allowed to go on and could have been avoided.
BB and staff took advantage of the fact this was obviously really considered a non-issue and no big thing by the owners who voted no and if it was passed we would not be seeing this crap go on all week-there would be no hand signals to be seen anywhere.
For the owners who voted NO its YOU who allowed this possibility to go on.
Its just like if you left your wallet outside your house purposly with a ton of money in it don't blame a guy to come along and take that money out of it and then call the cops to arrest him (if you know what I mean) - It was your fault he had the chance to take it from you. - YOU allowed this to go on.

,Its the owner's responsibility to correct stuff like this especially since it apparently is going on rampant throughout the league which is why this was brought up in the owners meetings in the first place
