Redskinswin Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 THe new horse collar rule will severely damper Williams tackiling ability. Bummer for him......it will be good to see him have to play fair now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OVCChairman Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 The Horse Collar rule came into effect last year...last i heard they were just going to emphasize it more. And you might want to make your thread more specific, and put it in the "Around the NFL" forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redskinswin Posted March 29, 2006 Author Share Posted March 29, 2006 Actually the new rule just passed to include pulling on the jersey from behind. http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2389062 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnyderShrugged Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 He plays for the NFL's "goldenboy" team so he probably won't be impacted at all, just like he wasnt by the rule that was created because of him in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santana_Fan Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 He'll be just as effective as the kickers on tackles!!!!!!!! :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critz1407 Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 I thought the was already a rule against it. I was just never called last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whatmeworry Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 THe new horse collar rule will severely damper Williams tackiling ability. Bummer for him......it will be good to see him have to play fair now! That was last year and I never saw the refs call it ONCE! In any game and leadfoot Williams acted like it didn't apply to him anyway as I saw him do it time after time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THEHEREAFTER Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Did the league come up with a spitting rule yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Weirdo Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Did the league come up with a spitting rule yet? Oh ****. :owned: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goaldeje Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Did the league come up with a spitting rule yet? Awwww, is that the best you can do, really? St made a stupid mistake. RW can't play, gets beat in coverage all the time, and has to resort to pulling people down from behind by their jerseys. Where's the comparison again?

GhostOfLamontHollinquest Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Did the league come up with a spitting rule yet? Spitting and cheating are two different things. One effects the outcome of the game a little more directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasta Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Did the league come up with a spitting rule yet? Yes. That's why ST was kicked out of the game. Unfortunately Roy Williams is going to actually have to learn to cover people now since his favorite tackled is now banned. That's what happens when you're two steps behind people all the time though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Die Hard Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Did the league come up with a spitting rule yet? Yeah, he got ejected from the game. How's that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeHateMe Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Strange that they instituted the "horse-collar" rule last season, and Roy didnt get flagged for violating it once. And he even made the Pro Bowl. Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeHateMe Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 WIlliams is done...seriously. He's going to have to tackle people now. Yeah, he should just retire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herrmag Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Oh ****.:owned: Actually, not owned, since there is a rule about spitting, and it hasn't hampered ST's ability to crush people. That being said, RW will be called a couple of times, and then he'll adjust. He may be overrated, but he's still a great safety, even if he does play for the Girls. BTW, I'm on business travel right now.....In Dallas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Click here http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=2389062 Doesnt change the fact he wasnt penalized ONCE for the rule created because of him. And the article only mentions the tackle already outlawed. No mention of him relating to this new rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
