You can't drive a QB to the ground with you weight on top of him. 

 

Again, I don't like it, but it gets called pretty often. I've seen less called than what Henry did.

He didnt do that he landed on his arms and not jones horrid call

We are on pace for 50+ passes again. Like to see a few more runs sprinkled in.

Part of the issue with the running game is our OL isn’t good at run blocking or blocking 5&7 step drops. We’re pidgeonholed a little. But sprinkled in they can do just enough.

Those three make up their boneheadedness with special. Without the special, with plays like that ,Howell maxes out at Romo, Rivers, KC, Dak etc..

You don’t think that drive looked special? I thought it did. *shrug*

They explained it right on the broadcast (while acknowledging it’s dumb). They want defenders to twist themselves as they’re falling to land by the wayside rather than with weight on the QB. It’s stupid and usually unrealistic obviously. That sack wasn’t even a hard hit, it’s practically gentle. But it technically violates the rule (they don’t always call it)

Seems like twisting can be dangerous to joints and ligaments, but I’m just a fan, what do I know? At some point you have to acknowledge you can only make it a safe game to a point.
