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.

I don’t really get the outrage over this.
The defender won’t be allowed to drop his entire body weight on the back of someone’s legs. It’s basically the same motion as a horse collar tackle and no one has any problem with that being illegal. Defenders can be taught to avoid this pretty easily. You can still tackle from behind, you can still go for the legs, you simply can’t drop your whole body weight on the legs which is obviously a very dangerous movement. What’s the problem? |

Another rule that requires a judgment call.

It doesn't say you can't land on the ball carrier's legs. You can't swivel your body and drop your weight on them. Non hip drop tackles from begind happen constantly in every game.
