Second, if the helmet hits too much during the preseason Mut 23 coins, it is possible to make it a point to reduce it in the regular season, which usually occurs when new rules are in place.
The rule of hands to face was changed in the last few years. In the trenches, you would often be permitted to hit defenders within the helmet (more than the facemask) if you removed the hand as soon as the contact occurred. If your hand remained on the helmet or facemask longer than one tick, it would be a penalty. If the impact of the strike to the helmet brutally snapped the defender's head the head was considered to be a violation.
The rule was modified in 2015 to state that "any contact to the helmet is considered a foul," it was flagged at least five times a game during the preseason during the trenches. Most of the time, it was at the line of attack.
I can remember getting a message from my brother following their first preseason game , when numerous flags were waved at him for this rule and he was pissed. He was playing against a smaller defensive line and, when he tries to punch his chest, his hands automatically rise up and then make a brief contact with the defender's helmet. The punch was previously not a crime however now it has been. We were both concerned about how it would fundamentally alter offensive line play.
The regular season began, the calls ceased to be a mystery. I'm pretty sure Mitch was not cited for one of them during the entire season. They weren't often executed as stated in the rulebook , and accidental contact with the helmet was not considered an offence buy madden 23 coins. A blow directly to the helmet was enforced and play in the trenches was not required the need to fundamentally change.
