As far as I understand it, yes. With the rule changes. Welcome to the complete pussification of the NFL.

Except no. He's supposed to tackle him without hitting him in the head, or using his own as a weapon.

Ochocinco could carry that team on his ****in back.

Hard to tell when it happens that fast. But it seemed ok to me.

Go watch ballet, tap dancing or synchronized swimming. This is FOOTBALL.

Go tell the Commissioner. I'm not saying whether I think it's right or not, I'm just saying the rules.

The point of being a DB is to dislodge the ball. As long as he doesn't hit the WR before the WR touches the ball, he's good in my book.

I seriously don't understand what a defender is supposed to do. Wait until the ref and the WR give him a thumbs up before hitting him?

If you make contact with the ball, you no longer fall under the defenseless category IMO. If you do, then there's no point in DBs even trying to defend balls anymore.

Exactly, they're killing the game with some of these newer rules.

One could argue that Goodell is not being a pussy and has a big pair based on him going against favorable opinion of big hits in favor of player safety at the expense of his legacy.

His legacy is, has been, and always will be comprimising the intergrity of the game for the sake of gernerating higher revenue. This rule is a fucking joke and can easily be used in common situations to flag the teams least likely of selling merchandise and contributing to a bigger bottom line. Goodell has a pair for pussifying the league and ruining the game at the expense of an already disgraced legacy? I might agree if he wasn't already the biggest douche to ever run the NFL.
