I guess I need to ask everyone and the NFL who thought Wilson drove Trent into the ground, what should Wilson have done?
I mean Trent still had the ball as Wilson started his tackle technique while running full speed. He hit him shoulder pad to chest, helmet to armpit, wrapped his arms in perfect tackling form and his body weight carried both of them to the ground.
What should Wilson have done, what could he have done? I don't think he could have done anything different, and just because the NFL fined him doesn't mean he did anything wrong. I don't care what the rules say, there is a whole lot of gray area there. The NFL picks and chooses based on that time of the month, so everyone here knows that was subjective.
I had no problem with the hit, Trent has a helmet and shoulder pads on too!
