I agree with you on that, its just there definition of what a rough house or dirty tackle is now a days. Some of the new rules are not setup fully yet so it varies from ref to ref but most are on the same page. Then you get those one refs where you're drunk standing up in your living room screaming at the tv like they can hear you..
Yeah defintley a hard hit, I'm surprised the refs didnt call it for aggressive tackling (not saying it should). The NFL is getting really picky and prissy with how you can tackle now a days.
This year is suppose to be the first year that if you lead a tackle with your helmet it's a penalty. Like really? What is our awesome sport coming to?
I was always taught to tackle hard and I was taught to shoot in and slam my opponent on the mat in wrestling. If you cant take the pain in a contact sport maybe these people should pick up finger painting.
It was ok cause it wasn't a QB being slammed. Wouldn't want them to chip the paint off their nails you know.

Man you reminded me when I had a girl QB in midgets. Her name was Nicole and this girl had a cannon. She was straight tom boy until she got tackled by us in practice or until the other team got her.. she would cry to much... eventually coach Dan replaced her.
Edit: O if we wanna talk about QB sacks/tackles how about the redskins beating up on Rodgers on Sunday afternoon? That line needs to tighten up and learn how to protect him.

O my Neal you should have never said this on here there is to many of us Pittsburghians on here.
Yeah I have no clue what they're doing this year, You gotta figure we lost a lot of our good players/leaders in the last past 3-4 years. Thats why the ravens are hurtin this year to, they lost players and great leaders like Ray Louis ( Even though I hate to say it).
The Steelers and the Ravens both need guys that are gonna step up in that locker room and hype their team up and choose to be the new team leaders.
