I think some are trying to make this rule much more complicated than it is. The intent of this rule was to get players to properly fit their helmets because for some reason they haven't been doing this lately. If you can slip your helmet on easily with one hand, it is not properly fitted. Look at most of the players who are losing their helmets and this is what is happening.
Your helmet should not come off period during a play. This rule did give an exception to situations where someone grabs the helmet and rips it off or in situations where a helmet is contacted directly by another helmet. Any other situation is the result of someone not wearing their helmet properly.
Tighten the helmet and strap it on properly or you may end up sitting out a play.
