Breaking the Rules?

[Sunbiz1]

If your referring to allowing the Defense to actually tackle someone, you damn straight. Its a contact sport, and while injuries will happen as its inevitable, purposely trying to break someones neck or knee is pretty damn low. Or like Hanesworth or Suh, trying to implant their foot in the opponents face or arms is uncalled for. Im referring to legal hits not illegal hits deemed by NFL rules of today. But even those are questionable obviously, aka 'Bradys Bubble'.

Hi, my name Suh...duh!. The NFL is trying to change their image, yet some of top HOF players were as dirty on the field as they come...Deacon Jones etc. Back then cheap shots were legal, which pretty much ended by 1980. Trying to end someone's career hasn't been tolerated for almost 30 years.

However, outside of QB's and WR's there aren't too many players happy with the new changes. So, as a means of quiet protest why not pay them extra to ignore a few silly rules...and pay their fines under the table.

Someone has to step in and protect the integrity of the game.

How is this not a big deal? Players were getting paid to go out and attempt to hurt other people. If they weren't protected by the sport that would be a felony. And it went all the way up to the general manager! And don't say they were all clean hits. How about the hit on Bennett last season that knocked him out? What about Favre?
