I know that it gives you a yardage mark to go by, but I cannot agree with it.
This rule has always been there, it is just reworded. Before it was worded that the players had to be within 15 yards of the ball at some poiint before the snap. Now there are marks on the field to help you find the mark and make sure that players are in compliance.
