He lead with his shoulder...it's professional football...lets just take off the pads and use flags from now on...JFC...

Looks to me like a helmet directly to the chin.

I think it's the definition of helmet to helmet.

What the rule is and what it should be are two different arguments.

You must be watching a different clip.

It doesn't ****ing matter if he meant to or not, it happened. We're not calling him James Harrison here, it was just an illegal hit.

Whether he hit him helmet to helmet or not is irrelevant anyway...

"The foul is forcibly hitting the defenseless player's head or neck area with the helmet, facemask, or shoulder, regardless of whether the defensive player also uses his arms to tackle the defenseless player by encircling or grasping him; and lowering the head and making forcible contact with the top/crown or forehead 'hairline' parts of the helmet against any part of the defenseless player's body."

A linebacker in pursuit is not a defenseless player. JFC please read the rules on the definition of a "defenseless" player.

The hit on Lee is an illegal blindside block. Lee is considered defenseless, which means you can't lower your head & hit in head/neck area.

Mike Pereira seems to disagree with you.

He usually does. What was Tate supposed to do? gently block him? Ridiculous.. IMO

Do illegal hit rules apply to blocks?

No, his helmet never touched his chin it just looks like it because of the way his head snaps back from the whiplash of being hit in the upper chest.

It is a new rule this year. If Tate would have kept his helmet from hitting the other guy in the chin, then it would have been legal. I still enjoyed watching it, but I'm pretty sure that was what the new rule was made to try to stop.
