This is gonna be a fucking mess.
Look how often Horse Collar Tackles are already called wrong. But now basically you can't pull a guy down from behind. You can't pull him down from the front or back. You can't hit him too high. You can't even form tackle him, if he bends over at all and meets you low.
They are basically legislating it to the point you can only tackle low and take out a guys knees.
But if you ask any player in the NFL, every single one would say tackle me any way you want, just don't dive at my knees.
The worst part too is that they're gonna start fining these guys huge sums of money. Real money. And they don't seem to fake guys salaries into account on those fines. Maybe Chris Jones or some of these other guys that are making 20+ million won't mind a 10-15k+ fine. But what about those guys who've only made a couple hundred k.
And personally I fucking hate NFL refs already. No need to give them more subjective calls that can change the game so much.
