Now THAT is what’s good about the targeting rule.


Jan 11, 2021, 9:33 PM

Absolutely the worst possible form on the worst possible target, unlike all the wishy-washy garbage calls, a la Skalski.

All targeting calls are wishy washy, wussy rule for a wussy

I hate the rule

I understand the intended purpose but it is out of hand. Started with “intent” and “launching” now the crown of the helmet is the deciding factor. These things are happening in split seconds, “intent” rarely seems to be premeditated maliciousness. That said, what it has shown me is tackling is a lost art and form fit tackles are a thing of the past.

Spearing is dangerous almost more for the defensive player. We were always taught Facemask on the football. With your head up you don't expose your neck. Head down you can compress your vertebra and be paralyzed. I get the ejection thing being removed but the intent is to keep players healthy. Otherwise hit as hard as you can

I’m ok with debate on that call ONLY on the basis of his head being down.

He went low and Fields spun into the helmet contact.

Clean tackle if he keeps his head up...

Not so sure why that’s hard to understand. That rule protects defenders as much as it does the person they are hitting. Skalski is lucky he didn’t break his neck.

Fields was the one that turned around. Would it have still been targeting if he hit Field poor little tum tum... nope. It’s football and things happen in a blink of an eye. There’s a difference between malicious intent and making a play.

It’s a good rule . One of several which will save football for the future .

disagree I say sign a waver and let the boys play. If you are worried then don’t play.

Waivers are not worth the paper they are written on in a court of law .
