I want him.

How does he feel about pickle juice to solve all that ails?
Not to rain on the sophomoric parade, but I actually grew up and went to school with a Mike Hunt. Died in a deer hunting accident when he was about 19. Real tragedy...he was a hell of a good young man.
Interesting story on our OL situation.
Great analysis of that fool Joe Barry.

Christian Watsons dad gives a hammy update.
Thanks, Goldie Krete!
Sorry, KK, I couldn't resist. This was posted in the 'Christian Watson' thread some days back.
But, I have a thought on Watson's hammies.
I think he should consider taking ballet lessons. Lynn Swann and Herschel Walker did, and I'd say they had good results.
Nothing to lose, and can't hurt to try.
So.... yeah!
Owners ban Hip-Drop tackle. The fine will be 15 yards and an automatic 1st Down.
Don’t necessarily disagree with this rule change, but man it is tough playing defense in this league.
This one seemed like a no brainer. Rugby banned this tackle because it was so dangerous. NFL said it was 20-25 times more likely to cause an injury than a regular tackle. No idea if that's accurate but watching a hip drop tackle in full speed, hard to argue it causes a significantly higher rate of injury. Owners just don't want to see their $20m WR go down with season ending injury. WRs fuel fantasy football and gambling, which seem to be driving most of the interest in the NFL these days.
People seem up in arms about calling it on the field properly but it seems pretty straightforward to me. NFL refs seem to call the horse collar tackle correctly, so why would a hip drop tackle be so much harder?
Players, coaches, fans, announcers, pundits, etc. will all be in agreement when a clear "hip-drop tackle" is called a penalty.
Players, coaches, fans, announcers, pundits, etc. will all be in agreement when it's clear a tackle was NOT a "hip-drop tackle" is called a NOT penalty.
Players, coaches, fans, announcers, pundits, etc. will all go ape shit when there's a grey area hip-drop tackle and it's called "improperly".....just like "not obvious" PI, roughing face masks, etc.

So when a defender grabs and twists them into the ground....Is this allowed?? Seattle does this and so do the Packers sometimes.
Honestly, they should just play flag football. No tackling at all
I predict fans will love the new rule when their team benefits from it and hate when it goes against them.

Thumbs down to this new rule/penalty, not you personally.
It's hard to not acknowledge the 'intent', player safety, blah, blah, blah.
I just see it as something that will be called wildly inconsistent as are RTP, PI, or other calls that are subject to a refs interpretation.
In any case, we all ("me") had better learn to recognize these tackles, and how they are called. The coaches better get a handle on this ASAP. Ditto the players.
We need another safety named Lee Roy or some variant of the name.
