KV bolsters my argument that a rule change that mandates wrapping up in the tackle won't eliminate the exciting, big hits that fans like to see.

Ive been arguing this for years now. Wrapping up is a fundamental element to defense. It needs to be taught again.

I don't know about making wrapping up a rule, but I think San Fran showed that you can be sound tackling while still rocking the snot out of people.

Yep, if you tackle like you're supposed to and wrap up, you not only lower the risk of getting flagged for a helmet-to-helmet hit, but you also increase the likelihood that you'll bring the guy down.
The rule change really tries to eliminate people launching themselves at others which is reckless and stupid to begin with (one reason I don't like Troy Polamalu, he launches himself constantly and gets praised for it).
