LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. - The NFL owners pass two rule modifications today that have Bengals stripes all over them. "The Chad Rule" backed by Cincinnati, passes, 29-3, as the league looks to rein in choreographed touchdown celebrations that Pro Bowl wide receivers Chad Johnson of the Bengals and Steve Smith of the Panthers have brought to an art form. More importantly, the Bengals' push to cut down on low quarterback hits in the wake of Carson Palmer's devastating left knee injury in the Wild Card loss to the Steelers results in a point-of-emphasis measure that passes by 25-7.
