NFL gives an extra heads-up on new helmet rule - The Boston Globe
FOXBOROUGH — Longtime NFL referee Clete Blakeman was at Gillette Stadium Monday explaining all of the league’s new rules to the Patriots players and coaches.
After listening to Blakeman and watching instructional videos, the Patriots think they understand the new leading-with-the-helmet rule.
They think.
“I don’t know how they’re going to officiate it,” fullback James Develin said. “I don’t know what’s going to get past and what’s not.”
Blakeman’s talk Monday “definitely cleared up some stuff[my sinuses],” safety Duron Harmon said, though the Jenkins/Cooks play from the Super Bowl never came up in the discussion.
“The dip of the helmet is what they’ll be looking for”
“If they do, then it’s going to be crazy”

OK, Clete Blakeman has got to be one of the all-time football names in history.
And, screw Volin who believes the Patriots are cheaters.
