American Football (NFL)

Man, there were a couple of hits in that game where I though the Niners literally killed the Saints player.
That one dude crumpled mid air and dropped the ball. That helmet to helmet must have rattled his brain.

they need to have a protest against that helmet to helmet contact ruling. football isn't the same anymore

To a certain degree, the leagues rule against helmet to helmet hits are justified. I've read quite a few articles of past NFL players that now have diseases due to the harsh hits they received while playing. Mostly brain injuries.
I think they should be less sensitive on what they deem a "personal foul." Then again, who agree's with what most referee's call anyways. As long as my team is winning..
-
What I don't quite get is they are telling the players to tone down the hits, and somehow, there are more stoppages for injury than I ever remember from when I was younger (talking 5-15 years old then, so 15 years ago).
I guess you could attribute that to either stronger players who hit harder today. But I have to say the whole cornerback/safety leading with the head like a battering ram thing is just pretty ghetto to me regardless.

The problem is these guys don't know how to tackle. When was the last time you saw a guy hit someone in the stomach and drive through him? most of the time, they lead with their helmet and their arms are by their side, not even involved. Proper tackling would fix 90% of the issues.

Agreed, unless you are James Harrison. He should just join the WWF.

so right about the basics just being forgotten/neglected by so many players at the professional level (it's really apparant in football & basketball).

Cold world son. Real question is, when are SF fans going to stop going to opponents arenas in their own gear, celebrating, and NOT expecting to get dealt with?
