Dear Quarterback, may I tackle you?
-
Rules are rules, and it is all about the QB in the NFL. Does anybody really want to watch 2 backups going head-to-head in a primetime late season matchup because the starters got injured?... NO!
These guys are professionals and need to adapt instead of cry.
Do I agree with all of the rules...? No. Do I like all of them?... No. But all 32 teams have to deal with it, so deal with it!
I've gotten tired of all the crying. Especially Clay Matthews, and I respect the kid, but that last penalty he went too high... it was not good form, which led to the penalty.
I don't want my QB to get hurt, so these guys just need to suck it up and play by the rules...
Complaining about CTE, wanting lifelong health benefits, bitching about short careers, and suing the league all while not wanting to play by rules designed to protect themselves is rather hypocritical on the part of the players... just sayin'

Yes and no, h... refs are protecting QBs on the hoof more than they used to as well...
Watson's was a non-contact deal suffered in practice.
One thing I did not see mentioned (apologies if I missed it) is we had our first case of a DL getting hurt trying to keep his body weight off of a QB.
Miami Dolphins veteran defensive end William Hayes is done for the season after suffering an injury while trying to abide by a controversial NFL rule.
Hayes tore the ACL in his right knee while sacking Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr in the second quarter of Sunday’s 28-20 victory.
Dolphins coach Adam Gase said Monday that Hayes sustained the injury while trying to not put his body weight on Carr to avoid drawing a flag as a result of the NFL’s point of emphasis on the roughing-the-passer penalty this season.
“He was not trying to put body weight on the quarterback, so his foot got caught in the ground,” Gase said.

Carr essentially apologized to the DE after the game.

This is going to start an even bigger backlash. Especially if "star" pass rushers start getting hurt.

Oh I get the rule, can't wait until a defender has the qb wrapped up in an arm tackle, and is trying to take him (gently) to the ground and the guy breaks free tossing a game winning TD.

Larry,
with all due respect, do you think with all the execs and lifetime NFL minds working on this that they already know your exact scenario is going to happen? Dude, if you and I can imagine it, you can be sure, they already know it is coming. You always take the position that NFL bosses are idiots, and we know better, or their subordinates know better.
Larry, life doesn't work this way. Corporations don't work this way. This rule may in-fact find a V 2.0, but if and when a QB gets hurt, the rule is going to come back. Not only will it come back, but I promise you, before too long there will be even more protection for the Quarterback. For instance, I can see the NFL changing the offense to 13 players, adding two offensive linemen who play in the backfield, and can only block on passing plays.
Larry, as I said, the can of worms is open. You can stop, kick and scream all you want about "put them in dresses" but clearly, owners have been trying to elevate the protection on quarterbacks for decades. You will not see a return to what you consider proper football. The NFL already knows that extra touchdowns will be made, a lot of unpopular calls will be made, but at the end of this, Quarterbacks will be protected more than ever.
It's all about money, Larry. The QB is THE only important position on the field. The QB is a franchise asset. Sorry pal, no more big QB hits. It is gone.
The Cleveland Browns have the hardest hit players in the NFL -

All reason that the newer startup leagues have a chance of succeeding. The NPFL, non pussy football league will be welcomed. Perhaps that’s XFL

Nice try, snapper head. I didn't make that as a discovery, merely a reminder of why the NFL is not going to go back on the QB tackling rule. Thanks for playing, try again. But really, if you want to war with me, try putting some ammo in your gun. Dismissed..........snapper head.

This isn't going away, either. It's not a stretch to say these calls have cost two teams wins. The Garrett call against the Steelers, and the Clay Matthews call against the Packers. Ironically, both teams tied, which is kind of weird, lol.
Garrett will have a couple more of these, and it's just a function of his speed and immense power. He's not a dirty player, never been called that. He's just better.

Or...with the popularity of soccer among our youth and the dumbass NFL owners thinking they're invincible and tweaking the rules for profit, the NFL goes the way of NASCAR.

With all due respect, I have heard 1,000 times over my life "I will stop watching" Like the Kaeperdick issue. I have everything about this movement, but I still watch.
Think about what you just said, " There is a limit to this and the NFL has exceeded it" LMAO.............seriously? Tell me about this limit. Who set the limit? Who has the limit setting authority that the NFL must abide by? Do you follow me here? The "NFL" answers to themselves. They, and they alone set the "limit" They don't answer to anyone else. If they want to make it hard to tackle the Quarterback, then that's what they will do. They don't give a schidt about what the fans want. If you were an NFL owner, would you? Dude, the NFL could force each player to wear a strap-on dildo and the fans, like bulldogs on a meat truck, will flock en masse.
The times are changing. There will be no meaningful retraction of this. Even if the NFL thought they went to far, they can't now, after providing new protection for the QB, retract their statement and say.. " we were wrong, we want to allow more QB hits than before. Ain't gonna happen man. People talking the QB are going to have to learn to refrain. It does make the #1 #1 Garrett look more and more like a dumb pick, doesn't it?

The Steelers are 6 time SB champs. They are, without doubt, the greatest franchise in the history of the NFL. Not the Browns, Packers, Bears, 9 ers, or anyone else can match their greatness and accomplishments. They own BOTH the original Browns, and the Fake Browns.
