Yeah, that's true -- but diving at someone's knees does not lead to stripping the ball, which through many months of football by the "WDOAT™" -- I took the liberty of trademarking the phrase "Worst Defense Of All Time" ™ in case it replaces "Who Dat" as a t-shirt money maker -- but sorry to disagree with you, but this whole policy of non-tackling, no catching, diving at the feet ****ers leads to the whole point of Oak wondering, "Why didn't we do this before now?" If you get my drift. This was a TEXTBOOK example of first guy stands him up ("Vilma's got a hold of him" the announcer says") and then Bush comes up with the strip, like I referred to in my earlier post. Textbook. Why didn't it happen before now? Ask the guys who dived at the feet.

Agreed. I'm sick of seeing all of this sh*t tackling all over the league. You learn how to tackle in high school. They first thing your coaches tell you is NOT to arm tackle when it comes to tackling. It should be simple in the pros.

Someone needs to take the fall for this nonsense.lf not spags then find him some hungry asst. Its total bs that these players get payed darn good money. They need to be diciplined. For the basic knowledge of playing this sport.
