There is as usual more to this ruling than is being discussed. This move is purely to do with liability issues. The goal posts are being made a bit higher thus making the goal posts heavier besides being longer. A few years back a goal post came down in a college game and struck and killed a woman. Considering the large number of people on the field, the NFL would like to avoid something like that happening as the damages for a law suit would be big.
