Do you really want to make defenders hurt? Make it a percentage of the QB's salary. Then QB's will never get touched again.

We all get it but the "new rule" & the application of it stinks. At the end of the day, I guess the league got what they wanted. Allow a star QB another chance during the 2 minute drill with everything on the line.

The new NFL needs to admit Matthews hit on Cousins was legal and move on.

Instead they're using it as an example of what not to do. In other words, please do not tackle the QB.

I know it seems like I'm defending the rule. I don't really like it, but I understand where the NFL is coming from with it.

The official ruling is that it was a foul because Matthews picked him up. Any lifting of the QB is consider a precursor for driving the QB into the ground.

The whole process is dumb. QBs cannot be tackled legally in any real sense. Any action looking like a legit tackle comes across as driving into the ground. That's why the new QB "tackle" is going to be shoving. No lift. No full weight. No driving.

Again I believe the key is going to wrapping up the QBs arms so that no forward motion can occur. It's going to be a pin the arms and shove move.

I think this illustrates the type I'm talking about

Only Atlanta choked in an unchokable situation... Life is definitely good.
