What is that? Your telling a defensive player they have to tackle the QB then roll in midair and let them land on you?

I agree with these new rules on hitting to try to extend players careers and their health after their careers are over but sometimes with QBs they want other players to basically play touch football. Its also why I am against an 18 game schedule.

They can land on the QB its driving them into the ground that they flag.
