NFL bans hip drop tackle

[bigde09]

First page full of "DEFENSE HAS NO CHANCE AT ALL" panic after the lowest scoring season since 2010. But of course, most football watchers couldn't tell you what changed in the league to bring this around and why this tackle being banned won't stop it.

You nikkas live in the fukking twilight zone and you legit do not understand what you're looking at. This is unbelievable.

None of these dudes know what they are talking about. A ban on a shytty hip drop tackle is going make offenses explode this season

Man, what?

Y'all crazy.its a dirty tackle. No coach teaches it. If you're after a ball carrier or even trying to tackle the ball,its just not a good way to get the ball carrier down.

NFLPA is useless. They get dog walked during every negotiation.

Aren’t they adding another game to the schedule too?

This. Mf'ers with the fake safety tripe in the NFL but keep ADDING games so they can pocket tv/ad revenue

They won’t let y’all play defense no more

The hip drop has always been a trash ass way to tackle somebody if you ask me. That's what you do if you don't have proper form in the 1st place and it's just as easy to roll the person you're tackling. You do a hip drop and you're almost guaranteed to hurt the person you're tackling, or yourself because there's a good chance they'll fall on your head or chest. It needs to be banned.

You can’t drop down
You can’t hit low
You can’t hit high.

At some point the defense gotta get a break

Give nikkaz these joints on defense that they used to use on American Gladiators

How were you taught to tackle from behind? Enlighten us?

Owners stay winning meanwhile the players gotta fight for contracts and benefits.

I thought you was one of us and would never cross the line breh

You sounding like a Wide Receiver right now

I understand it’s a dangerous play. I never played football at any level so if there’s anyone here that did play help me understand. If I’m trying to tackle someone with 15-20 pounds on me and Im wrapping him up from the side. He’s like 4 yards from the first down. How am I supposed to not only get him on the ground but prevent him from moving forward and get the first down without completely dropping my weight to stop progress? Is there another strategy y’all were taught in this kinda situation? I’m legit curious cause Mark Andrew’s getting injured was a killer so I get the removal but what could he have done differently? An ankle tackle allows easy ability to reach forward for extra yards.

I played safety and never had to do a hip drop on anyone. I was always taught to wrap up and roll or use their momentum against them.

Roll. Just as effective and infinitely safer.
