If you want to fight for the first down you shouldn’t slide feet first or you are very likely to end up like Moore
I agree.

Russ kept sliding feet first WAY early last night and I called my dad and said what the heck is he doing? He’d EASILY pick up these first downs diving head first into empty space and it would be a whole lot safer for him.

You are 100% correct because that’s exactly what he is taught to do on a qb in the open field. He had roughly .281 seconds to change that thought and instead try and avoid contact. I personally think that isn’t easy to do.

You know you’re wrong when pridetard87 is on your side

Where in the downswing would someone be .281 seconds before contact with the golf ball?

And I’m sure it’s close to being accurate, but where are we getting the .281 seconds from?

The defender’s body position(head and chest high, arse back) is factoring into my opinion.

5.5 yards apart moving at roughly 20mph gets you that reaction time to impact

There are dirtier hits every week. I am not going to try and say it was massively dirty or something.

But celebrating after the hit and seeing the result? Absolutely fricking despicable.

Watch the hit, he was reckless. He went for his head with his shoulders. He was completely upright too when Dante slid.

Oregon players have clearly targeted as well and it’s going to happen, so no one is upset about the hit itself.

Just don’t act like a douche afterwards.

Of course, this a Lincoln Riley coached team so I don’t expect more

Yeah I’m not saying it shouldn’t have been flagged or that his reaction afterwards wasn’t disgusting. Just that the hit itself wasn’t really avoidable in and of itself.

This is a completely wrong statement. His actions during the hit displays his egregious intent

The guy fricking celebrated the hit and laughed it up. He knew what he was trying to do.

Do I think he could have avoided this? Yes. Do I think it’s difficult to do this when you are thinking hit hit hit tuning 20 mph and someone else running 20 mph to make this decision to then not hit this fast ? Yes
The part of this argument that seems missing to me is how low he hit him. If he wasn't able to adjust, what had his plan been going in? To hit the QB at the knees with a forearm shiver? That would have been legal?

Yes, he was trying to hit the football player running in the open field going for a first down…..

His actions after the play were thug POS, but him hitting a you running for a first down is pretty much football

His entire thought process is to hit the guy running in the open field. When the qb went lower he went lower. If the qb jumped he would have gone higher

Correct. The QB had 8 yards before to slide in which he chose not to

You are just trying to argue. If you agree with the gif you are more of a Dubai’s than I ever imagined..

QBs weren’t pussies back then.

The rules have changed. I loved me some Ronnie Lott but we’re not in that era.

I also think the rule is gonna cause some unfortunate ejections.

The same thing happens if I’m at the wrong place at the wrong time going thru an intersection with a red light camera.


It’s life.
