I heard that this morning. I can't hate on Dungy though since he is a defense guy. And you can't argue with the Panthers defense. We'll beat them twice though.

Ahmad Brooks: Football’s watered down these days

"I didn't hit him with my hand or my helmet," Brooks told reporters, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. "I basically bear-hugged him. That's just how football is played. I think this s--- is bull----. Football, the way they call stuff these days, it's watered down. It ain't real no more."
Brees, on the other hand, believes the call was correct.

"All I remember is just getting clothes-lined in the chin, and as I'm on the ground I'm saying, 'That's got to be a flag,''' Brees said.

Brooks isn’t the only person who feels that way, but the rules governing hits on quarterbacks aren’t going to go anywhere.

My take - it was a clear clothesline swing and the moving gif's and other images do not do it justice until you see it in its entirety. Last I checked the clothesline move was illegal in the NFL. The call was correct.

Do I agree with him that the NFL is becoming a panzy league? YES
Was the right call made? YES - he did it.

It's up to coaches and Brooks to teach and learn the rules. End of story.

You are absolutely right Halo. Like the call or not, according to the rules set in place, the Referees had NO choice but to call roughing the passer. So, all you SF "fans" tolling this site...It was a good call.


HITS TO PASSER’S HEAD AND USE OF HELMET AND FACEMASK
(3)
�� In covering the passer position, Referees will be particularly alert to fouls in which defenders impermissibly use the helmet and/or facemask to hit the passer, or use hands, arms, or other parts of the body to hit the passer forcibly in the head or neck area (see also the other unnecessary-roughness rules covering these subjects). A defensive player must not use his helmet against a passer who is in a defenseless posture for example, (a) forcibly hitting the passer’s head or neck area with the helmet or facemask, regardless of whether the defensive player also uses his arms to tackle the passer by encircling or grasping him, or (b) lowering the head and making forcible contact with the top/crown or forehead/”hairline” parts of the helmet against any part of the passer’s body. This rule does not prohibit incidental contact by the mask or non-crown parts of the helmet in the course of a conventional tackle on a passer.

<snip>

Penalty: For Roughing the Passer: Loss of 15 yards from the previous spot; disqualification if flagrant.

Note 1: If in doubt about a roughness call or potentially dangerous tactic on the quarterback, the Referee should always call roughing the passer.

Agreed. But, don't hold your breath waiting on Harbaugh to teach his players. He did not demerit Brooks for the penality. So, essentially saying to his players -- go ahead choke the sh*t out of anyone you want. That is his committment to the rules.

Here's the summary: The SF 49ers are going to play dirty. The whole organization should be fined. Harbaugh, specifically, is a douche.

I'm sure If the shoe was on the other foot the 49ers would be happy and we'd be beachin.. as far as kaep goes.. greatness comes with time and experience. let's see later down the road.

Actually I remember Corey White getting two such penalties and this board mostly blamed White.

I almost started a thread about that Dungy retard. Dude is only relevant cause he had a qb that was able to coach himself for his entire career

Re: The most boneheaded SF play of the game

Here's a better angle.
Clearly a clotheline tackle directed at the QB's neck, directly.
From this angle there is no question of it. Amazingly, you're not seeing this angle around the interwebz.
