NFL Week 13: (It’s Garoppolo) - Page 47 - Sporting Events and Fantasy Sports

While it is easy to aim at a dude's chest and hit him in the helmet inadvertently. Instead of blocking--that was launching into the guy who isn't looking at him. Come on.

If we reversed sides we'd be able to see him attempting to lead with his right shoulder and turning his head away to the side before impact. Only thing that gets contacted is burficts very bottom portion of his face mask to the side of juju's helmet, otherwise he's buried right in his upper chest for the most part.

Launching? His feet hardly get off the ground.

You want him to stand there flat-footed and take the punishment instead of dish it out, on a guy like Burfict? lol at that. Maybe he can throw himself sideways next time belly to belly then pin him afterward with a silent hit.

Two wrongs don't make a right

The correct feeling is to hate the stealers more, not burfict less

Like you know what it is like to never win anything significant, while always losing to your division rival. Then sure enough that dirty cheating division rival always seems to win with their media darling QB who is obviously a scumbag with a legion of fans taking up for them.

Oh wait...cheers bro

LOL I can't imagine what you guys were saying during Steelers vs Ravens during their hayday. There were hits like that on almost every snap.

What does that have to do with anything? Crackbacks to the head were legal back then.

JUJU throwing a borderline block is treated the same as the Gronk hit and the Crabtree/Talib incident is asinine

I'd argue his right shoulder is making contact at the same moment, and the majority of juju's helmet/facemask is in his breast plate. I'd also argue there's no intent for him to go helmet to helmet, even though he was hoping to lay him out, as he did. The side of juju's helmet does collide with burfict's chinstrap/lower portion of his facemask. But, he's also getting his helmet all the way across his chest and attempting to turn his head away to avoid any helmet contact. imo it's 80% clean, where the rest can get chalked up to incidental, but that's not the nfl we're in anymore, almost anything that looks bad gets called.

maybe if he had a head like a turtle, that goes back into his shell, could he have avoided the incidental helmet to helmet contact.

only in this day and age does clear video evidence cause only more disparity.

if he is leading with the crown of his helmet(spearing), why is right shoulder making contact with burfict's chest simultaneously?

he(juju) even leans his head to the left to avoid helmet contact as much as possible.

do some of you guys even know basic human anatomy, let alone ever played organized football?

like mike mitchell said, get the flags out. gg nfl.

discloser, not a steeler fan
