The nfl makes everything so soft. Not letting people finish tackles but the real bullshite is the rules making all kinds of hits illegal. Who cares if people get concussions, they know the risk when they play so man up and hit

Then why does the quarterback get special rules just to protect him? If your hand touches the QBs helmet it's roughing the passer? Wtf? He's a football player too. What makes him more special than a lineman?

Then pass interference is now defined as an incomplete pass. Man the frick up and play football

I don't think there should be any restrictions on tackles/hits

Oh because we haven't had this discussion before.

Also, do you hold the same opinion of CFB? Seeing as how CFB has the targeting rule while the NFL does not.

I like some internet nobody telling professional athletes they need to man up.

It really is amazing. The very idea that NFL > CFB in anyway drives them mad for some reason. I don't know why it bothers them.

It wouldn't be so funny if they were at least consistent. I've seen many posts like the OP who will turn around say, "CFB IS AWESOME!", even though it deals with extremely similar problems.

So, since CFB has an even worse rule since it actually ejects players for questionable hits, and the refs in CFB aren't any better as we all know at this point, then I assume based on your logic that CFB also sucks, correct?

But an accurate observation

The issues are similar, but not quite as bad. It's a different of degrees caused by the fact that outside of targeting, the NFL has more retarded and arcane rules.

I simply disagree here. CFB throws guys out in the targeting rule. Also, what you stated about the NFL having more retarded/arcane rules is not fact, that is opinion.

Now, I will say I have my issues with the NFL, but I tend to defend them on here because a lot of posters here tend to go overboard.

As for the idea of too many flags, I've seen an issue with too many missed calls in CFB. I've seen some of the same type of fans bitch and moan about missed holding calls and so on in CFB, but turn around and slam the NFL for too many, but accurate most of the time, flags. Now if it's obviously a bad call, that's different.

I would imagine he was referring to the NFL rule makers and not the players. Reading comprehension is so hard for some people.

I will add that if you want the refs to lay off protecting the QB, you better pray for your fav team's QB. I guarantee you if Brees started taking some hard hits and went out with injury because refs didn't intervene, shite would hit the fan on here bigly.

I never even mentioned Cam, and if you think nothing would happen, then you're delusional. Go take a nap you senile old man.
