Those are the ones that stood out to us. We went through them play by play and tried to look at, No. 1, was the player blocked into the quarterback? And No. 2, could he have avoided the hit that he made? Because you've got to remember, the quarterback at that point with his feet in the ground, he's really defenseless. -Rich Mckay

I don't know that the Palmer play was the driving force (for the proposal), but it was certainly a force. Every year, we look at all the injuries. We additionally spent a lot of time this year looking at the quarterback tape and the quarterback injuries. So when a defensive player has an opportunity to avoid, he must take that opportunity to avoid.

That it is one that's definitely sparked some interest. It probably took us more time to discuss it and different aspects of it this year than any year in the past. -Rich Mckay

It helps the defense in a sense - I don't want to accuse the offense of stealing signals, let's just assume they're borrowing the signals. We think it would be good to give the defense that ability.
