What's this?

You may not like the call, but I saw several retired officials begrudgingly


state that, per the rule, the refs made the right call. I think everyone would agree that it's a terrible rule though. There was no malicious intent from Clay, unlike the hit on Rodgers from the Minnesota LB that spurred this rule. He purposely drove Rodgers into the ground. Matthews simply tackled Smith yesterday.

  So did Clay Matthews bang Goodell's wife or shoot his dog -- mancunian 09/24/2018 08:22AM
  Okay, so I finally watched the play. -- Chris Coleman  09/24/2018 11:15AM
  Well, in fairness, yesterday's hit was a TEXTBOOK ex. of the current rule -- JoesterVT 09/24/2018 08:40AM
  I'm just waiting until a team lets the QB get hit on purpose -- HokieAl 09/24/2018 10:52AM
  Ummm, I can't. -- HWA 09/24/2018 12:19PM
  Yet this is legal... -- Chris Coleman  09/24/2018 10:16AM
  Not saying I like it, but that wasn't against a QB. -- Tafkam Hokie 09/24/2018 10:57AM
  Oh yeah, no doubt. -- Chris Coleman  09/24/2018 11:04AM
  Disagry. I don't think you continue to wrap the QB when trying to go all in -- 48zip 09/24/2018 09:00AM
  You're right. I should have said the rule is absurd. ** -- mancunian 09/24/2018 08:54AM
  I agree; he did exactly what they say you can't do now -- WestyHokie 09/24/2018 08:43AM
  Agree. Had a thread about it yesterday, just down the board. -- Hokie CPA 09/24/2018 08:38AM
