...it's is safer for a tackler to go in with his head up than to lead with his head .The rule will keep both players safe .

Agreed.
Good tackling technique is bend your knees to go down but keep your upper body straight up.
Doesn't the NFL have a youth coaching program called "Heads up football"?

Ryan Shazier injured his spine because he lowered his head. I like this rule. I don't like watching guys get concussed, football is way richer than that.
