Because it seems like everyone has forgotten how to tackle. :(

lol Ever tryed to wrap up Ron Daynes legs?? Welcome to 'Concussion 101'.

Seriously, i feel yer pain LS. But wrapping up around the legs and taking a guys feet from out under him like i want ... is easier said than done. It hurts when a guys legs are churning, and it's the #1 reason for concussions to Defensive players ... 'a knee to the helmet'. Therefore alot of players just are'nt doing it.

Theirs a techinque to tackling alot of the players today know nothing about. Now rather it's the Coaches fault for not teaching it or the Players fault for not learning it ... i don't honestly 100% know. I'd imagine both.

But i do know that watching a defensive player, especially a Denver Defensive player, chase a guy down from behind for 20 or 30 yards ... just to grab his shoulders so the guy can just run another 10 yards with him on his back?? lol Nothing eats me up more than that! :mad:
