Cowboy's Punter Laid Out

[YankeeRebel]

Agree, cheap shot, especially in preseason. Does not look like the punter was chasing down or setting up to tackle.

Actually when you see the punter veering to his right that is where the play is headed, he is moving, languidly toward the play.

Seriously?

This has people's panties in a wad?

Okay, was it necessary? No. But come the fuck on! That's not even a hit. It was more like a slight shove that made the dude fall over.

If we gonna start calling that illegal, then just shut the whole sport down and call it a day!

Did you read the thread? If so point out whose "panties are in a wad"...I said I thought it was "dirty" and one other guy said he didn't know but thought it was a cheap shot and the refs did give him 15 yards...damn you are lazy if that's what you got out of the 20 plus posts in this thread

By now I am sure most have seen the video of the Cowboy's punter getting laid out by what to me looks like a legal hit. Seems the media is latching onto this as I have now seen multiple day. The write up basically stating the hit should not have happened, I disagree. He is a football player that was in proximity to a return that may have required at least some effort to stop the run. Since when is it not cool to block another football player. I liken this the asinine concept of " You don't make that call in the Playoffs "!!

It was a cheap shot.

It was a cheap shot.

Well we all have opinions. I think it was a football play, in a football game.

Admit it, you're wrong on this one.

I am not and I will not.

I can agree with that too, don't think it was illegal or anything, just a cheap shot since the guy wasn't even looking and he was clearly caught way off balance.

You made a foolish comment so you should admit you are wrong. There is no shame in that.

If I had I would, end of story. Go bark up another tree.

Not until you admit that you are wrong.

I guess maybe he should have screamed, " Hey Mr. Punter dude I am about to block you be prepared "! Of course why didn't I think of that?

I stand corrected...panties now seem to be bunching a little

LOL, don't know where you got that, but please carry on.

It was unnecessary. Most would be screaming if it was their teams punter.

I will carry on but where I got it from should be obvious to you.

Was it unnecessary or was it overly aggressive?
