If they are that worried about protecting the QB they need to make the QB unable to move the ball past the line of scrimmage. That would take away a lot of hits they take


Bingo.

Cam Newton comes to mind. You can’t exactly come at him half speed. He’s not going down without a solid form tackle and that is especially true once he takes off running

You know something is ridiculous when these ladies defending the call against a perfect form tackle sack are trying to explain how to do it. My favorite was “let him fall” or how about not wrap up Cam or Ben and just try to knock them down?! Neither of these guys have ever tackled anybody.

Roethlisberger too. There are some QB's who make a living off not going down easily and extending plays.

I don't know how you're supposed to sack those guys. Maybe just make it like spring games where you two hand touch the QB down. That's where it seems like we're headed.
