I never said players can't tackle clean and still be physical. Obviously the flag football pink jersey comment was a joke.

I don't want players to try and injure other players but it is reality and they can change the rules all they want. That's not going to change..

Whatever you say. Have a good day

Whatever, Bro. I've been in plenty of fights because I can't keep my mouth shut around assholes and bullies. I also started playing football when I was twelve all the way through high school. Never did I have to tackle someone dirty to get the job done.

Injuries are a reality in football, no doubt. But you can't let players intentionally try to hurt other players as a means to an end.

The last thing we need is another 15 yard penalty with a first down for the refs to use to control the outcome of the game.

You have to go out of your way to tackle someone like that. Just like any penalty, there will be some questionable calls. But that tackle is totally unnecessary. It's a dirty play. If you can't beat them, injure them.

This is my thinking. The first time I remember ever seeing it was when it happened to Mahomes in the Jags game. It's a very unnatural way to try and get somebody on the ground. You have to be making an effort to do that weird shit, which means some asshole coach/coaches caught on to the fact that it leads to injury and started coaching players to do it. **** that and **** them. Make it illegal and start throwing flags on the newest dirty shit that people have discovered.

Or its just a result of all the bullshit rules stacked against the defense that prevents them from doing their job so the players started shifting their weight in different ways to prevent extra yards.

Just make it flag football already.

Whatever. The same method of tackling that has been taught at the youth level for decades is still completely legal and works. This flag football crying bullshit is over-the-top.

That's not accurate. There are plenty of clean ways to tackle. Just look at how elite our defensive backs are when it comes to tackling. No need to employ a tackling technique that seems dubious and less efficient unless the goal is to injure.
