When a Pittsburgh Steelers player gets his name associated with a rule, it tends to be a negative association. The Mel Blount Rule came about to prevent the Hall of Fame cornerback from playing in the physical style for which he was known. The Hines Ward Rule restricted what the wide receiver was known for as a blocker.
But tight end Jesse James is happy with his own rule, even if it came too late for him. you already know what the rule is and why it’s relevant, so I’m not going to get too into it, but suffice it to say that it may have been the difference between the first seed and the second seed in the playoffs last season.
