If (and for now it’s an “if”) it cuts down on season ending injuries it’s worth it.
Yeah i said it. |

But for a year, I'm gonna loathe this. It's going to decide ballgames. But to the folks that think it's going to be hard to enforce - man, I don't think so. It's so damn obvious when we see it. Hopefully the officials aren't too crazy about interpretation and if not, the transition will be painful but doable. |

I think you'll see it most with LBs and DBs because they try to use their speed advantage to create momentum to finish tackles against larger players. By and large, DL will be able to stop pretty much immediately; as you noted, it's not a natural motion, especially for a big guy who isn't in full flight. but for a dude on the run towards the sidelines who sees someone getting near the sticks, that's going to be something he's been doing to stop their momentum (instead of the 'his stick' flying dive tackle) for a few years now. It's going to take some time to get those guys to stop doing that. |

Y’all are goofy. You talk about how backups are part of the game but millions of y’all tune the **** out when guys like Aaron rodgers get hurt. The best players on the field is way better football than players being allowed to tackle and hit more freely. Maybe you should just watch the old xfl where players could do whatever the **** they want, since the quality of players on the field doesn’t have any impact on ratings.

Over/under on the number of games before KC benefits from this and someone uses this penalty as additional evidence that the refs/NFL rigged it for the Chiefs.
