Message: [QUOTE="Patman, post: 5074764, member: 3391"] I think this is the big difference. When contact has happened it's been with late slides or thought the other way early into the slide. It's a hard pull up when you're going that hard. On there hand I can see the "there is no such thing as good contact" being enforced because head injuries are so important and maybe players just have to adapt one has to accept that you don't know if the qb will stay upright or slide so you can't lunge at all because they might slide. I don't know. I don't think the current regime is fair to the defenders per se. Edit: I think the nfl is trying to get their qbs to avoid all injury. I think college is ok with the game of chicken for a few more yards. Much more pressure to win in college than the nfl. The nfl has become a manicured product [/QUOTE]
