It will make players not bend way over and hit with their head anymore.  It hurts the team. The NFL wants it completely out of the game.

 

So the defensive player is just supposed to stand up and take a shot to his ribs.  They say they are going to call it against the RBs, but so far that has not been the case.

Exactly, and coaches can point to the NFL when teaching  'heads up' play. Bend from knees, not waist, eyes up, head off center.

That doesn’t the guys at the HS, NCAA, and NFL level who were taught to do it “wrong”

 

 

  should do what LL does with game changing rules and gradually enforce it

If it is with a helmet, the RB will get the flag.  Plus, the DB has to get low from knees, not the waist.

NFL can't afford to wait, they are a business and open to lawsuits.  (still some out there)

Not from what I've seen.  There have been multiple instances when the offensive player has lowered their head first and nothing was called.

If it s helmet to helmet, D will get flag because RB is determined to be going into protect mode. D never is in defenseless position, thus never ion protect mode.  They are in strike mode.
