I want Thornhill doing that every chance he gets and as long as there's no helmet to helmet contact, there should never be a flag.

It was helmet-to-helmet. I have no problem with hard hits. I do have a problem with guys just launching themselves and hurting star players.

I want to watch real football, not a bunch of backups.

Come on man, you keep talking about the juju hit. We're talking about the MVS hit which led to me posting the Thornhill hit which led to Chiefzilla saying he didn't like that hit either which led to my comment.

Keep up man

Sorry. I don't really care about the MVS hit. I care about the one that injured a player we really need to be healthy.

I feel like this topic cant really be settled until jettio comes and tells us that we know not shit about tackle football as it is played in the National Football League.

I was also thinking today that if a crackback block on a return or interception is illegal, then this hit should have been illegal.

Like a lineman tracking the ball on an interception who gets cracked when his attention is on the ball, JuJu had his attention on the ball.

I believe that if JuJu was tracking a DB after an interception, and Cisco made that exact hit, he would have been flagged, and they would NOT have picked it up.

I do not agree with you when it comes to defenseless receivers. You don’t have to hit stick to play tough. And often times these big hitters like abrams with the raiders make dumb mistakes because they want to make a statement hit instead of making an actual play. Many of these are easily avoidable just by using your arms to actually play the ball the way you’re supposed to. The nfl usually lets players hit. It’s just that moment when receivers are extremely vulnerable that they’re monitoring. Or at least, they do for every team but us.

Things are different now with concussion protocols. And unless your suggestion is to get rid of those protocols then you are incentivizing defensive players to tonya Harding players like we saw in bountygate. I’d rather see the best on the field. I don’t want defenses gaining a gigantic advantage knowing that they can send their worst players to knock out the enemies best players.

I’ll bitch about targeting overenforcement like the rest of them. But I also get why these rules are in place. People forget how absolutely shitty the league was a few years ago when half the QBs were backups.
