Protecting Players

[Paintballr]

So honestly, with the new rules in place for the WR, which do you agree with?

Situation 1-

Player A joins group tackle and hits Player B in the head with parial helmet and shoulder pad. Player B doesn't get up and is now out and hurt with a head injury. No flag no call.

Situation 2-

Player A tackles Player B going over the middle making a catch. Hits with arms and push, Player B drops said pass and falls down but gets up right away. Player A is flagged and is a 15 yard penalty due to roughness and protecting Player B.

Which one sounds like football and the correct call? Rep if you know the plays also...(which most people should)

[Guild]

Neither is correct.

If anything the first is unnecessary roughness and the second is a bad call.

Also I assume the first is the hit that injured Stewart and the second is the clean hit we got flagged for that everyone in the stadium booed the zebras over.

Situation 3 - Darren Sharper smashes into Jonathan Stewart's helmet, leaving him concussed, and then gloats over his sprawled body, screaming obscenities at him and the Panthers sideline. Steve Smith, Jon Beason, and Sir Purr beat the living poo out of him with the first down marker.

situation three!

Ding ding first situation was Stew and Sharper. But really is the NFL going to look at it? Probably not. He isn't known to the point that James Harrison is with hits...plus he plays for the saints.

But Situation 2 happened yesterday to, anyone know when?

I think it's pretty obvious situation 2 was the Beason hit later in the game...

Yeah, I mean I just think its funny some people, even on this board think the first hit was clean.

Darren Sharper is a cheap coward.

You sound like a 1st grade teacher asking little kid questions.

Hah I mean sometimes you have to word it like that for people to see the truth behind it.

[woody]

Yeah I just thought it was funny.

[Paintballr]

[Wither]

No... don't bump this.
