What kind of sissy crap is this? My advice to any player not wanting to
feel the wrath of Roy is........run faster and get away from that dude
because he is deadly. But instead of saying that...the owners outlaw
this type of tackle. In a league where they already pamper and baby the
QB....now you can't grab a receiver from behind? Me personally...I laughed
uncontrollably when Roy tackled TO last year. (remember Philly fans cheered as Michael Irvin lay motionless on the turf) I think it's a BS rule...
I guess Roy will have to go back to doing it the old fashioned way...
just go head up and lay the guy out.

We might as well put a set of flags and pink skirts on the skill position players. Shameful. Nitschke is rolling over in his grave. I'd like to hear what Chuck Bednarik thinks about this.

The rest of the NFL is just upset that Roy Williams is probably the only player in the entire NFL that is athletic enough to do that type of tackle. They may as well just call it the Roy Williams rule
