OP needs to put NSFW in the title considering this thread is full of vaginas.

If we are gonna talk about dirty play then someone needs to bring up the blatant horse collar by Evans.
RWIII broke a long run at the top of the 2nd quarter and Evans pulled him down by horse collar to prevent the score. Pretty fricking dirty seeing that everyone knows RWIII is coming off a serious neck injury.

I had my fingers crossed it wouldn't get a flag but it looks like he grabbed shoulder

Didn't watch but are you still whining about Garrett getting taken to the woodshed?

I'll grant you this: if that was a horsecollar on Evans it should have been called. I figured since the side judge was behind the play, he must have had a real good look at where Evans was actually grabbing.
As for the crack back -- legal or not it's a POS call by a group headed up by a fat fricking POS. When you pull that shite blocking away from the designed run lane (and there was no read, no option, it was a designed run to the strong side), the only intent is to hurt someone.

Good thing it was also a clean hit. Unlike the horse collar by Evans.

You couldn't be more wrong if you tried. The reason for that block is to allow the tackle to get to the 2nd level. 15 was left unblocked by the OL. The motion man legally blocked him. Nothing dirty about it. If he had dove at his legs then you would have an argument.

Y'all had an equal horsecaller uncalled taking down Knight as he ran for the endzone but I think the refs were just trying to have mercy on y'all at that point.

It's amazing to me that so many people on this site are so fricking ignorant about football. Some of you morons don't even know that a crack back block simply IS a certain type of block in the back. The block in that play is WITHOUT question a crack back block. But even if it wasn't, it would still be illegal, because it was a block in the back by a player who was not on the los at the snap. Unless you're a fricking idiot or can't read English, this play is CLEARLY illegal according up the rules Gunnysack posted.
And those claiming the purpose of the block us to keep the DE of the tackle so the tackle can get to the LBer, that's just a pathetic excuse for a pointless cheap shot. If the DE is engaging the DT, blocking him INTO the tackle sure as shite ain't gonna help the tackle get to the LBer. And if the DE ain't engaging the DT, then the blindside earhole shot accomplishes nothing except getting a blindside earhole shot.

It didn't get called therefore by definition it is legal
Signed the rant

At no time during the block can you NOT read both numbers on the maroon jersey, how is that a block in the back?
Now the facemask is another story.

Why would the DE (defensive end) engage with the DT (defensive tackle)?

You sure felt that way when you were crossing your fingers about the horse collar. No flag -- No foul.

I agree

No I didn't say that at all.
Posted on 9/30/16 at 8:01 am to Hugh McElroy
Correct me if I am wrong but I thought it was illegal if it was below the waist?

Yeah, we know that. That's the point. Bert trains his guys to do this, intentionally, as a basic part of his gameplan. So his gameplan includes illegal blocks. Malice aforethought. And yes it is illegal - you can't crackback block unless you are on the LOS at the snap and this guy was in motion.
Bert came into the league crying multiple times a day about player safety (trying to get HUNH offenses banned) but yet he's the one coach in the league who has developed a package where one player's job is to blindside the DE on the side opposite the play for no other reason than it's an opportunity to dish out punishment on a defenseless player. Bert is a massive (literally) hypocrite.

It's not. Everyone here gets that except for the Aggies who are clearly biased.

I thought a crack back wasn't when a player was off the LOS, rather it was when a player lined up wide and came back?
