[QUOTE="ksios, post: 242842, member: 1493"] "Football is a violent game." I have heard that so many times when a player gets hurt. REALLY...FOOTBALL...A VIOLENT GAME? ARE THEY SERIOUS? No kidding, that's what makes football not baseball. anytime you have a 200-300 lb people crashing into each other at full speed, things happen...bad things. I'm all for some of the rules enforced as to reduce the chance of injury, such has the horse collar, and chop blocking. but tackling a qb low is a penalty? If this keeps up, they will be playing in skirts and throwing a nerf ball. The last thing most players want to do is injure a fellow player, but it does happen. An example would be the horse collar penalty. It is illegal to do but yet it still happens, not as much but yet it still does. My point is that players will still be exposed to injury as long as the game is tackle football. Stop making extra penalties that will slow down the game and do very little to stop injuries from happening. We know that the league is trying to give the offense as much of an edge as they can, because fans love lots of points. I think it is getting to be over the top with rules.
