The ruling came out after the annual Competition Committee meeting and all teams knew about it. If Special Teams coaches didn't do their job and Coach the the new rules that is their fault.

The patriots KNEW this and Belichick has admitted it.

My guess is it was thought of as one of those rules no one was going to enforce... until it was enforced...
