Re: GOoDell's new field turf recomendation
Will it take someone dying on the field to satisfy you?"'Clean up your room.', 'Stand up straight.', 'Pick up your feet.', 'Take it like a man.', 'Be nice to your sister.', 'Don't mix beer and wine, ever.'. Oh yeah, 'Don't drive on the railroad track.'"

Re: GOoDell's new field turf recomendation
Speaking of exceptions to the rule... I don't recall 1 single NFL player ever getting killed in a game in the entire history of the league.
Now, I could be wrong here, but it seems to me that using a never happened occurance to support one's argument is fundamentally flawed.
Edit... Chuck Hughes of the Lions is the only player in NFL history who died (1971) during a game. He suffered a heart attack.Last edited by Yasgur's Farm; 10-21-2010, 12:22 PM.Comment

Re: GOoDell's new field turf recomendation
Maybe you could use that one dimensional thinking if the speed and the size of the players didn't progress so much. It's obvious the hits now are more violent and more explosive than ever before. If this continues it's only a matter of time before somebody dies on an NFL field which the league can't have and will try everything to avoid.Originally posted by draz54

Re: GOoDell's new field turf recomendation
I'm not questioning helmet to helmet... I have zero issue with upholding the rule book. My problem is that hits, defined as clean by the rule book, are subject to fines and suspensions.
That's my only issue. I'm not sure what's so hard to understand about that.Comment

Rule 12-2-7G bans "using any part of a player's helmet (including the top/crown and forehead/hairline parts) or facemask to butt, spear, or ram an opponent violently or unnecessarily," as well as states clearly that "violent or unnecessary use of the helmet is impermissible against any opponent."
This rule calls for a 15yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct, and it applies equally to both the offense and defense.
Its just never calledLast edited by Ingtar33; 10-21-2010, 02:37 PM.My wife told me that if I had a dollar for every girl who found me unattractive, girls would find me VERY attractive.

Re: GOoDell's new field turf recomendation
I dont remember the old timers complaining of being hit. Yea the dirt hits need to stop but the protecting the QBs like all the Brady rules are getting out of hand. Put a red jersey on them and have it two hand touch.

Re: GOoDell's new field turf recomendation
Again... I have no issue with illegal hits. I fully understand the leading with the helmet rule... As I've stated in this and other threads.Originally posted by Ingtar33
That said... This change goes beyond the rules leaving players to continually guess how their hit will be interpreted. It's much too gray.Last edited by Yasgur's Farm; 10-21-2010, 02:41 PM.Comment

Re: GOoDell's new field turf recomendation
I agree with coach sal that it should NOT be labeled helmet to helmet, these collisions happen all the time its hard to avoid sometimes AND SHOULD NOT BE ILLEGAL
However, leading with your head where you are lunging with your head forward is different AND SHOULD BE ILLEGAL
The distinction needs to be made.
IMO I was fine with harrisons hit....looked clean just a hard hit got to be ready for that if your a WRLast edited by mrbojanglezs; 10-21-2010, 02:53 PM.
