I think they really need to reduce the level of armor on the elbow pads and shoulder pads that players use these days. Gives the players the sense of being able to do anything without feeling it on their end. Providing reckless play, and with the speed and size of players being what it is now, that is a bad trait.

Give guys the flimsy shoulder pads from the 80's and see how many guys still throw hits with reckless abandon. Those pads gave a little protection for normal hits, but if you went trying to take a guys block off, you'd screw up your own shoulder as well.
