Watched Marqise Lee from my jags go down and he is done for the season I expect.


No need for Lee to be tackled the way he was by the defender. The guy launched himself at Lee's knees.

What is he supposed to do?

If he went high as Lee lowered his head, he’s flagged for helmet to helmet.

The defense can’t win. I don’t see anything wrong with the tackle anyway. Itbsucks that Lee got injured, but it’s football.

This is what Roger asked for.

You're right, he should let the WR run him over and give up another 2 to 3 yards every tackle attempt.

He didn't "luanch" himself. The dude was running, you know, as most football players do.

If he hits high, he's penalized for it. He went low, got penalized for it anyway and put a player out for the year.

Defensive players are now severely handicapped when it comes to tackling.
