My first reaction, as a clasly Steelers fan, is to hope they are both alright.</p>


<p>
-Clark is up and walking. Probably just a concusion.</p>

<p>
-McGahee is still down. Although he is moving. Hopefully he just has what Ben has or in even better condition. Its has been reported he is moving and talking. He has servere neck pain. I pray its just a sprain or something not as servere. UPDATE: He checked out of the hospital. It was also reported that he would have been fine to play in the Super Bowl had the Ravens won. </p>




<p>
Notice how the CLASSY STEELER FANS appluaded him when he was okay, and the fans yelling "good luck". What class compared to browns fans on this board cheering Bens injury and the Browns fans at the stadium cheering when Ryan Clark hurt himself when we were in Cleveland.</p>


<p>
I can't believe no one noticed I spelled the title wrong. I had "I Hope They are BOTH All Right"! I just corrected it.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/topic/2473/i-hope-they-are-both-alright</link><generator>RSS for Node</generator><lastBuildDate>Thu, 01 Oct 2026 04:58:13 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link href="https://brownsboard.com/topic/2473.rss" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/><pubDate>Mon, 19 Jan 2009 03:04:34 GMT</pubDate><ttl>60</ttl><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to I Hope They are BOTH Alright! on Tue, 20 Jan 2009 01:18:23 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/lemosley01" aria-label="Profile: lemosley01">@<bdi>lemosley01</bdi></a> <a href="/post/35344">said</a>:</p>Ah...backing off the video evidence because you've been pwn3d?

He led the hit with his shoulder, not his helmet.  The helmet's did hit, but that was incidental.</p>

What is it, they don't know good tackling fundamentals, so they try to knock them out so they can't go anymore?  It's dangerous for the players doing it, and it's even more dangerous for the players not expecting it.  It's cheap, and they need to keep it under control before someone gets killed.  I'm not picking on the Steelers, players around the league are doing it.  Even Sean Jones and Brodney Pool (Pool keeps giving himself concussions by leading with his head).

Fact is that Clark has a history of just this kind of hit. He's been fined before for "helmet-to-helmet" hits and "launching" himself at other players. He admits he doesn't "know how to control" his tackles.</p>

<p>
Did you even read what I said? What was wrong about that? Or did he get fined?</p>

<p>
FS's are known for being reckless when making hits and tackles. See Ed Reed, Brian Dawkins, Rodney harrison, Sean Taylor etc. In the NFL, it seems to be nature of the position to get fined and penalized more often then other positions. It doesn't make it right to do anything dangerous or dirty. Yes, he has made reckless hits before but he doesn't have a history of dirty play...</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/35178</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/35178</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[yeahDAisafuturehofer...]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 19 Jan 2009 21:05:11 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to I Hope They are BOTH Alright! on Mon, 19 Jan 2009 20:50:25 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/fooleeze" aria-label="Profile: fooleeze">@<bdi>fooleeze</bdi></a> <a href="/post/35155">said</a>:</p>I believe this is you saying you figured he would be fined. . .</blockquote>

I believe this is you saying you figured he would be fined. . .</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/35155</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/35155</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Fooleeze]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 19 Jan 2009 20:47:42 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to I Hope They are BOTH Alright! on Mon, 19 Jan 2009 20:39:19 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/fooleeze" aria-label="Profile: fooleeze">@<bdi>fooleeze</bdi></a> <a href="/post/35117">said</a>:</p>Do you want me to copy that picture in here 6 times that shows his head leaning back before his shoulder is impacted?

League rule states that helmet-to-helmet tackling isn't against the rules. And yeah, I would LOVE for you to show me proof it was blantantly helemt-to-helmet. I suggest you use the same method the league does and look at it from atleast 3 different angles.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/35143</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/35143</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[yeahDAisafuturehofer...]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 19 Jan 2009 20:39:19 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to I Hope They are BOTH Alright! on Mon, 19 Jan 2009 20:39:42 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/fooleeze" aria-label="Profile: fooleeze">@<bdi>fooleeze</bdi></a> <a href="/post/35127">said</a>:</p>"Clark launched himself head first at McGahee, who seemed to instinctively duck his head into the contact.

<p>
This is exactly what I was talking about.  "Clark launched himself head first at McGahee. . . the league typically frowns on players launching themselves helmet first at opponents."  My first post talked about this being exactly what I hate, is players launching themselves head first.  The picture showed his arms at his sides, he wasn't trying to make a good form tackle, he was trying to make the big 'highlight' hit.</p>

<p>
You said in another post that it was a clean hit, then turned around and said he will probably get fined by the NFL.  The NFL doesn't make it a habit of fining clean hits.</p>

<p>
I NEVER said he will be fined and yes Goodell said he will fine clean hits if he feels the were unnecessary. Tackling someone with the ball is not only necessary, its the point of the game. </p>

<p>
So much for frowning on players who launch themselves... That Jets player wasn't fined for luanching himself at Boldin, he was fined for the blantant helmet-to-helmet hit on a defensless receiver. McGahee wasn't defensless becuase he ran straight at Clark while he looked at him. Helmet-to-helmet tackling is allowed as long as you don't luach yourself. He hit shoulder-to-shoulder to start.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/35139</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/35139</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[yeahDAisafuturehofer...]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 19 Jan 2009 20:39:42 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to I Hope They are BOTH Alright! on Mon, 19 Jan 2009 20:30:43 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/hiwaygal" aria-label="Profile: hiwaygal">@<bdi>hiwaygal</bdi></a> said:</p>And from this source:

<p>
He didn't lead with his head so it will not be a fine. Goodell already said you can "leave your feet" and "launch" yourself. You just can lead with your helmet.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/35129</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/35129</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[yeahDAisafuturehofer...]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mon, 19 Jan 2009 20:30:43 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
