Trying to tackle, not rope a calf.
Every time I see it employed, I always think the player is going get hurt. |

Was the tackle that Sneed attempted to make on the last 49ers touchdown a hip drop tackle? He grabbed him and dropped his weight didn't he? If so, well it didn't work anyway...

Last year....Ryan Tannehill, Geno Smith, Mark Andrews, Tyreek Hill and Deshaun Watson
Last year... Mahomes and Tony pollard NFL claims it is 20-25 times more likely to cause injury. A few of these guys have fractured their legs Easy decision |

Like the horse collar, dudes know when they’re doing it and they know it’s dangerous. Every year, thousands of completely legal tackles are made. The league will still thrive without this method. |

I can see it now, Derek.Henry breaks out and open field , a D B jumps on his back & ride him all the way to the goal line for a TD, just because he can't drop down tackle him.

I have no idea how a DB weighing 210 brings down a 275 lb TE running full speed.
