I think if you go watch 6 man football at the high school level in the states that play it (Texas is one; a couple of other states play it as well rather than 8 man played elsewhere), you'd see the collisions I'm speaking of. You have players running full speed and no downfield blockers to either slow them up or cause them to run around the blockers, making for potentially pretty rough collisions. Put 2 or more guys at the size and speed of NFL players and you could have a disaster.

Think about how NFL defensive coordinators will scheme a wider field. More zones and more safeties. The hits may be legal, but as we know, injuries happen more on legal hits than they do on illegal ones.

I'm just suggesting they think about this.
