^^ Yes, and they have switched back for this season. They had considered switching mid season last year, but then it may have been less fair to some teams who had tougher competition earlier on in the season. Because every team had the same handycap, it kept everything level.
I do find it funny the full circle this conversation has taken. A few pages ago the Pro-NFLers were saying the NFL was better because of fewer dropped passes, etc. Now they are saying its better because the ball is easier to catch. I don't suppose its possible that some of those dropped passes are a result of the ball being harder to catch?
