Nfl has banned the hip drop tackle. Is the ncaa next?

How is “targeting” still a thing? So 2012

It's so funny because the graphics just look like how you're supposed to tackle someone without going high. Wrap up and use your weight as leverage to get a bigger player down to the ground.

Rugby, hockey, and lacrosse gain more appeal every day.

This is stupid. I'm curious as to what the alternative way of tackling a guy from behind would be?

Just take the entire defense off the field. Seems like that's what we are going towards

Can't argue this one bit

I believe that's the "Bo Jackson injury" tackle.

A classic form tackle is wrap-up the legs/hips and drive up and through — not wrap-up the torso and rip down.

Although sometimes in the heat of the moment, you have to do what you have to do.

Ok, that was a good one - and a fair point. lol

NFL has taken anything from the should up as a targeting, in a practical sense.

Now they've taken out this style which had gained in favor due to the above.

We will keep moving down the body of the ball carrier. Teams will devise ways to neutralize and eliminate knees. This will be the new target area.

And we will see a host of new prominent knee injuries.

At this point, maybe it's best to go the way of rugby and maybe just go to shells and let them modify style of play that way.

I remember that injury. That was miserable for him.

knees and below.

Knee injuries a plenty and maybe some broken tibias and fibulas inbound.

As soon as this was released the DCs and defenses were strategizing how to implement new tackling protocols.
