Ok, here is the new rule change regarding the pocket area for 2005. Rule 3-24, definition of pocket area states, "The pocket area applies from the normal tackle position on each side of the center and extends backwards to the offensive team's own end line." It continutes to state as the effect of this rule change "There will be one definition of the pocket area for every play that covers intentional grounding, illegal contact, and an illegal cut block."
Here is something that could explain it.

This is interesting in that on the surface it appears that there was no defined pocket area or at least not one that is written in stone. A better way to put it would be such as every umpire has his own strike zone, I guess. Is this available on the net to read?
Thanks this is very interesting.
