J-Wall Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 The NFL just basically turned the hard nosed hard hitting super power NFL into flag football or what football players call thud. The new rules are getting completly ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1000# Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Vince Young got injured trying to recover a fumble tonight. Its time to blow the play dead when the ball is fumbled. Too many "devastating" injuries on fumble recoveries. These type of scrums are an antiquated relic of the 20th century and have no place in the new NFL.Signed, Ray Anderson, Executive Vice President, Football Operations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalconsfanDK Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 yeah.. i get that they try to prevent injuries, but with d-rob, should he just let desean jackson go? come on, when the player got the ball he is not defenseless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happens when a WR does deck out a db pe lb?yea i sure do, its crazy that the NFL makes a rule that doesnt pretain to both sides of the ball, every rule that has been made since reall ever has helped the offense and just made things that much harder on defense.... mel blount rule, then the roy williams rule, now this, thoes three itself just cripple a defense with doing anything..... big hits also makes ppl enjoy watching the game... its not all about offensse!!!

AtlFan1971 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 If this had been the Superbowl and Jackson was in the endzone and DRob made this same play to keep him from getting a touchdown - is it still a penalty. WTF I don't get how DRob was supposed to break up this catch without hitting him hard - I'm sorry that they both got hurt, but I give DRob the Hickory Stick Award for laying a smack down and making one heck of a play!Jackson had the ball in his hands taken almost 2 steps and then DRob laid some wood down. Was Dunta supposed to give him 5 steps 10 steps before he hit him or simply try to 2 hand touch him and call him down because his pinky toe touched him. I am for rules that protect these players, but when a receiver has the ball in both hands, taken 2 steps, I don't call that defensless.

bige Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 I bet you Rey Lewis is more upset than anybody.Lewis would be ejected every week for a devastating hit.It's a part of the game.Always has been.While I'm all for the restrictions on the knees and head,this is more about $ and protecting their stars.

Maybe i'm looking to deep into this but will teams start drafting differently and not have intimidating players like we do in the backend in Decoud and Moore? It's not just a head to head hit they are saying anything viscous will be a suspension right? I'm all for trying to protect players but taking the physicality out of the game is not the right move to do. Goddell is making his league too girly imo. I understand the helmet to helmet and hitting qb's below the knees as well as the horse collar but everything else is bologna. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st4ngeI2 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 ya got that right - this league is going to unpopularize themselves... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdogg Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Just listen to Collin Cowherd....you can tell hes a "guy" that has never played the game at any level. Hes one of those girly men that wants to basically turn the NFL into a flag football league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
