A commentator said over the weekend that he would like to see all blocks be above the waist.  That’s understandable unless your small and don’t weigh much.  Small guys cut big guys down.  Big guys know this and protect there knees.

Football is turning into what everyone wants to eliminate from the game.  Now you can’t go high to tackle so you go low.  After a while the injuries start to build from being hit low.  Now what?  You can only touch the runner and he’s down by contact.  But not to hard contact.

It’s no longer football.  CTE scan for players is going to hurt the NFL and it will change the game.  I think that this attack on football will eventually milk this game down to a touch football.

The problem I see in the game is players still tackle and block and run with there eyes looking at the ground that should be a penalty.  I think receivers and defensive backs should be able to hand fight until the ball is in the air.  But grabbing jersey and pulling isn’t allowed.

Quarterbacks are responsible for putting receivers in danger when they throw balls leading them into the defensive collisions.  I call those ball,  hospital balls.

The fact that men has invented a lot of killing machine and weapons but can’t develop equipment that can protect football players is crazy.  But more money in artillery and weapons then protection for a few in the NFL.

The NFL is the only contact sport that involves so many players on each play.  Hockey is also a contact sport.  And of course the combative arts like UFC and boxing are of course physical contact.  But this is a game that has people running into other people at full speed.

The helmet is probably to be blamed for all of these head injuries.  Once you’ve been given that piece of equipment players begin to use it as a weapon.  It isn’t suppose to be used in that manner.  But because it’s a large part of the game with the uniform.  It’s a large part of what people like to see.  If you didn’t get a helmet and less padding maybe there wouldn’t be head to head contact.  I know there a lot of people who would shy away from putting your head down without a helmet.  But you know being young and crazy someone would still be lowering there head and use it as a weapon.
