Why has this not been seen in the playoffs?

Why hasn't anyone tried the short safety's equalizer? When a taller, leaping WR goes up for a "jumpball" down-field, stop trying to out leap him for the ball! You're toast. What you should do is take advantage of his air. Plant a driving shoulder into the hamstrings. Result? Sore hammies, and you turn that WR a reverse somersault, likely resulting in a shoulder-first crash to the ground. If he holds on to the ball, at least you've made him earn it! I have grown weary of seeing 5' 10" safeties/corners trying to play jump ball with 6' 3" and above receivers. Cut him a flip!! These are the type of bonecrushing tackles that scare the wits out of receivers, whether they'll admit it or not!

:D

It's football, people, a CONTACT sport. Besides, it is a LEGAL hit. As for the basketball remark...in basketball, the move would be a flagrant foul, and rightly so...football is a different beast altogether...shoot! maybe I'm too old. I still remember watching games with bloody noses, torn uniforms, broken bones, knocked out teeth... I guess I'll have to get used to watching the new "civilized" game, custom-tailored to appeal to all the metrosexuals out there. Chai tea anyone?

It was just some good nature joking.....hell I appreciate Albert Haynesworth's stomp on any Cowboy's face.!! Make the leaping wideout think twice when jumping for that pass.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      fuging Christ dude this isnt hard.  Like at all.  I get you simping for this poo team is your thing but sometimes you have to look at reality.   Even removing his bum knee from the equation, none of this made sense.  He is 31.  He has been paid handsomely for his service here.  He was currently under contract for this season.  Why in the holy fug did anything have to be done 2 weeks before the season started.   The people for this move, in this thread are saying A) He deserved it (this is the nfl it doesnt work like that  B) It frees up cap space (then why in the fug didnt we do this in Feb or C) You logic (We are getting a deal at 53 million guaranteed for the next 3 years.   You realize with this deal we cannot cut or trade his ass for 3 years.  You understand this right?   So in my opinion we should have let this ride into the offseason and go from there, what he is going to threaten to walk, big fuging deal he would be 32 on a chronically bad knee, what other moronic franchise is going to give him 40 million up front?  It wasnt going to happen.   And you are acting like its impossible to replace a 32 year old RT with a bum knee.  Just go and draft someone, move Icky to RT.  There are tons of options instead of extending this dude 2 weeks before the fuging season.  The truth is Morgan and the shitheads in the FO fell for this dudes crying act and got all sentimental and shelled out another ext.  We are a poverty ass franchise that doesnt act professionally

      Amazing what the prospect of being traded to Carolina will do for contract negotiations.

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      5 Im glad football is back but after the embarrassment that was the browns pre season game where our starting D made Sanders look like a serviceable NFL QB, I lost hope again for a successful Panthers campaign this year.  I do hope I’m wrong!
