    Ok. I got it.

     

    The Bills has absolutely no shot trading for Quinn because the Dolphins play in the same division and obviously it's really dumb even though that same team did it years earlier to the most dominant team in the NFL.

     

    It's set in stone. Thanks for the inside info.??

    Glad I could clear that up for you ?

    The Patriots traded a 2nd round pick for an unknown? 

     

    Not really moronic if you are looking to rebuild the roster and shed salary like the Dolphins. 

     

    You made it seem like it was impossible for the Bills to make that trade but I just gave you an example of that same team trading a good player within the division.... to the ***** Patriots of all teams.

    In 2007. And yes, Welker was an unknown. He had a 60 catch 600 yard season and was a good return man. He was also a restricted free agent.

     

    Of course there are dumb examples out there, but the general rule is that division rival do not trade with each other often. Is this news to you? Do you have some more decade old examples?

    I see your point.

     

    Maybe the answer is something like;

     

    A fair independent review to take the on the spot judgment out of the game. 

     

    Increase fines and suspension like with with other stuff.   

     

    As as an example I see Poyer and Hyde let up and not kill a guy when when they could quite often. Still good safeties though. 

     

    How is do you make that part of the sportsmanship around the game? 

     

    The answer is to enforce the penalties for hits to the head / neck of the player. They also have an unnecessary roughness penalty that can be used to penalize any vicious, unnecessary hit. I don't think they need a new rule that takes good plays out of the game.

    Wow. A penalty because guys aren't aware of their surroundings? Just go out there with horse blinders so you can draw a penalty every time you get blocked.

     

    I really don't like this. It's the defender's job to be aware. If you hit them in the head/neck area, sure it's a foul, but a clean hit on their body shouldn't ever be a foul.

    Yep- but if they don’t see you, you don’t have to decapitate them... in those circumstances it doesn’t take much to take them out of the play 

    This rule doesn't take into account how vicious the hit is. ANY block, even if it is just a nudge, could potentially be called, which is a big problem to me. The defender just has to not be looking around.
