Saints vs Cardinals Gameday Thread

from behind? How is that not a block in the back at least?

The hit was from the side, not the back... it was a legal hit. That's why they say "keep your head on a swivel" or you'll get killed. Warner found out the hard way.

Nobody's mentioned the other aspect of that play... it was a hell of an interception.

If that was a punt returner and not a lineman barreling down the field, it would have been called a block in the back every time. :icon_bs:

Even if it was legal, it was a legal cheap shot. :coolgleamA:

All defense men are taught to try to get a good legal hit on the QB if an interception is thrown. Warner was in the play and was perfectly ellegible to be blocked. Yes it was a nasty hit, but this is typical.

Panthers players would have done the same thing. You want to get big hits on the QB.

if it was Smitty throwing that block on Vilma we could call it amazing.

No way... they protect QB's in the NFL like little babies...they would have called it in a heart beat if it was illegal...

I see how you can say it was a cheap shot, but if a defensive player can take a legal shot at a QB, they'll do it every time and why not?

It would have been a lot more "cheap" if Warner was further from the play, but he was right there in the middle of it.
