quote:

after an int or fumble, the QB is no longer a QB but a defender that is attempting to tackle the ball carrier.

taking a defender out of the play ensures that he will not bring down your ball carrier.


In 1999, I'd agree with you. But the NFL has gone out of their way to protect the qb's, even after turnovers. The NFL suspended Sean Payton because the Saints defense layed out Kurt Warner (how many times was that hit played over and over?).

Just surprised by the NFL statement, that's all.
