Ok, fair point from the officials' POV. But I still say Brady's just being a
whinging little bitch about it. Instead of needing to glean some info off a
guy's number, how 'bout this: "see guy with other color jersey on? Mash him."
Or "guy in two point stance behind really big guy is Mike". (Mike who?)

Does this mean that an OL lined up as a TE would no longer have to report as
eligible? Isn't this going to be a nightmare for officials trying to figure
out if there's an ineligible receiver downfield?

Agreed. I hate it. Have individual exceptions for players on teams who have
retired a bunch of numbers in the certain ranges, but this free for all just
makes it confusing.

I'm with Brady. It's an absolute nightmare for QBs and their ability to read

Dig up... I'm in favor of it. I forget why they restrict what numbers
players use anyway. Screw it, let D linemen wear 25. Let kickers wear 66.
Receivers should still be limited to 80-89, though. Cuz F them, that's why.
