Paterno, Ditka offer solutions to dicey hits - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
Interesting take. What are your thoughts?

Im sure they would also like to go back to 1985, "the glory years". This is nothing more then 2 old men bit**ing about something. What old man doesnt?
I ask again, What does the NFL expect to happen when you put the biggest, strongest, fastest freaks of nature and put them on a field and let them go all out? If i want to watch people lollipop around and have flags for touching another player on ever snap i can watch the NBA or WNBA. Either way the point of my post is the NBA sucks.

Maybe we should just cut to the chase and do what the real old men did back in the gladiator days and just let them kill each other with swords, lions and spears. Would that satisify your vicarious blood lust? The problem is this 'technique' and 'behavior' bleeds down into college, highschool, and even pee wee football.
The NFL has a responsibility to stop it now. If I want to see Roman coliseum activity I will go watch an old Spartacus movie. That ain't real football.

What does the NBA have to do with any part of this thread?
It doesnt matter in the end though does it? The NFL has been working for years to take defense out of the game. Every rule put in place in the last 10 years has been to protect the offense.
Lets be honest, High scoring games attracts the casual fans and thats what the NFL wants. This is just the next step in taking defense out of games.
"Ditka said the hit on Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson by the Atlanta Falcons' Dunta Robinson on Sunday was legal." That hit was 100% legal but it looked bad. How does the NFL make a new rule about hits and then fine someone for a legal hit?
Everything Kobe. Everything.
35 broken noses/game later and they would rethink this. This is not the same football as having a guy that is 6'1", 180lbs playing left tackle.
