because you didn't

You mentioned he should have just avoided the hit. I said he had two options, hit like he did or avoid it altogether. So, we agree?

Exactly. Ridiculous rule.

You're right, no choice but to drop your helmet/hit the other guy in the head

SJS

Please. What a dumb comment.

where else in that situation would you hit the receiver

cougarmanguy

11/27/15 3:04pm

You really can't think of any other options?

SJS

11/27/15 3:05pm

in that situation, there was no other option

cougarmanguy

11/27/15 3:06pm

give me the other option sjs before you pretend to be superior

Oh, I'm not pretending.

I did and you laughed at it.

One posts you say defender has two options, other posts you say he has only one

SJS

11/27/15 3:22pm

props to us both. we have bored the board

cougarmanguy

11/27/15 3:23pm

To be honest, I'd rather argue keeping/firing Bronco. I will let you pick sides

SJS

11/27/15 3:27pm

No, I also said he could have made a play on the ball. He didn't.

SpiffCoug

11/27/15 3:21pm

there was no way to make a play on the ball without it

cougarmanguy

11/27/15 3:22pm

Then I guess he would have been better avoiding the hit, then wouldn't he?

SpiffCoug

11/27/15 3:31pm

congratulations. That's almost exactly what I said from the word go

cougarmanguy

11/27/15 3:32pm

Except it sounds like you don't think the rule should exist. I do.

SpiffCoug

11/27/15 3:39pm

never said that once

cougarmanguy

11/27/15 3:46pm

Didn't say you did.

SpiffCoug

11/27/15 4:03pm

also words I never said. you are attacking me without knowing why.

cougarmanguy

11/27/15 6:06pm

so, simply making up words and intent. awesome

cougarmanguy

11/27/15 6:33pm

Agree there is no where else he could get hit

gww687

11/27/15 3:02pm

make a play on the ball and not the man? That's one thing.

SpiffCoug

11/27/15 3:02pm

He did. The guy shielded it with his head/shoulders when he rolled.

Turnpike Lane

11/27/15 3:06pm

he looked like he was trying to duck under him at the end

cougarmanguy

11/27/15 3:07pm

Sorry, but it was a completely unnecessary hit.

SpiffCoug

11/27/15 3:07pm

But the problem is if the receiver dives downfield to catch the ball there's nothing the defender can do - if

HarlemCoug

11/27/15 3:16pm

exactly. there are no other options.

cougarmanguy

11/27/15 3:17pm

The rule does not require any hitting at all.

SpiffCoug

11/27/15 3:20pm

There is something he can do: don't hit the receiver.
