Whats wow about it??? he got penalty and purpose hurt someone.

WhoDat205 · 05-29-2007, 11:21 AM

IMO, that was a legal hit. He didn't lead with the helmet

Euphoria · 05-29-2007, 11:41 AM

NO NO... that was helmet to helmet and you could argue the point of hitting a defensless player.

I for one don't want to see Horn get hurt right at the end of his career, I hope he finishes his career healthy and returns home to retire a Saint..

It was not a deliberate illegal hit. Caldwell had possesion and the job of a safety is to do whatever it takes to get that ball out of there. He was not a poor defensless reciever. He had the ball and made a "football move" oward the endzone. I would agree with you if the ball were overthrown and Kevin still jacks him up like that. Then it would be different.

I don't want to see this kid injure any other player, but I do want to see some big hits from Him and Harper that will make recievers and TEs alike skerred to hit the middle of the field.

well it may not have been deliberate, but it was illegal, cause he got flagged for it.

I wasn't going to touch this one, but seriously.... let's stop the nit-picking about legal or illegal and wishing bad things on other players.... I think the point of this video was for people to "oooh" and "ahhh" over a very hard and borderline bad play. I would be ticked if KK was flagged for that play as a Saint, but I'm glad to see some aggressiveness (although not smart) from our newest safety.

The difference between a flabable play and a clean play can be a matter of inches. And when you're running full bore, that window is even smaller. Flagged or not, he did his job and loved the way he did it. I only wish Bullocks would get more physical. He certainly wasn't last year.

Good post, completley right. What is he supposed to do, let him catch the ball? Try to push him over from the side, possibly miss the angle, and let the guy run for a TD. There's no better way to defend it than what he did. It sucked that he got a penalty, but you can't blame him for it. That's the way it goes sometimes.

It's good to see he's not scared to get infront of someone who's running full speed.
