Mayfield was down with 2 other Bills on top of him when the other 2 launched into him. It was late, and it was dirty. 

 

Landry's hit on Williams was dirty because he launched into his head. He blocked into the chest this time, so it's legal. 

 

Why are you here? You must be whacked. Are you the guy he practices crack back blocks on?

Right, but call out "dirty" players all around. Your guys do it and it's fine. Someone else does it and guys are calling for people to end Landry's career.

 

Landry is a repeat offender... Have no issue with a dirty play once but when it becomes consistent then he becomes a dirty player... Which Jarvis is.

Thanks for posting this! I had been wanting to see the hit again. 

 

Just FYI you can embed it by clicking on the “post as plain text” icon that pops up at the bottom of the screen after you paste the link. 

 

 

And here is the current rules on crackback blocks for those curious -

 

https://operations.nfl.com/the-rules/2017-rules-changes-and-points-of-emphasis/

  • Prohibit crackback blocks by an offensive player in a backfield position and in motion, even if he is not more than two yards outside the tackle when the ball is snapped. A player in motion can legally block a defender if he blocks upfield and not back toward the position where the ball was snapped.

 

I want to clarify that you found a recent modification to the rule which looks like it has to do with the positioning of he offensive player. It wouldn’t apply in this case.  Here’s an explanation of what a crackback is and when it is illegal:

What is Crackback Block?

An offensive strategy in which a player spread out wide near the sideline will run back towards the ball at the snap in order to seal off a defender from the wide side and open up the field for a runner. A crackback block is illegal if contact is made below the waist, and can be assessed a fifteen yard penalty. Crackback blocks are most useful on plays meant to get around the edge of the defense and gain yardage.

 

That would make this block legal because he got him in the body.  He hit AW in the head so that was a different story.

It's with a guy like this I wish there was more of a "hockey" mentality. It's a preseason game, pay him back!

 

I hate the guy 's guts for the way he ended Aaron William's career. Yeah, ended it, pretty drastic, no?  

 

This one wasn't so bad TBH. I'd find no reason with another player. It's because it's HIM that makes it dirty. And because the TV interviewer basically complimented him on it and Landry was so gleaming with pride.

What about the blindside block rule?

Sorry if a topic is already started on this. 

 

He tried to take Poyer out on the TD run just as he did to AW back a few years. How was this not a penalty?! Really can’t stand this guy and I hope someone sends him a message eventually. 

 

he won't get away with this if he tries it on someone on the Steelers or Ravens.  

 

Hopefully someone on the Bills D jacks him up at the line of scrimmage next time we play.  Put a big nasty LB on him and just pound him every play.

Looking at these comments, I thought I was on an Eagles fan site.

 

Bills fans are pissed that Landry "tried to take out," one of our players.

 

So what's the answer?  TAKE HIM OUT!!!!

 

That's not my kind of football.

the answer is not "take him out" but play more physical on him and make sure that if he attempts a dirty hit someone goes after him after the play to draw attention to it.  If the league won't protect players, players need to draw attention to ti.

1) Landry is very overrated 

2) we would like him on the Bills

3) he will keep doing it if the Nfl does nothing about it

4) and the Bills will keep getting bullied until they stand up for themselves.  Still can’t get over their gutless reaction to Gronk last year.

Well you are in luck. From our past experiences with players who have hurt our guys, we never retaliate (referring to Gronk and Landry in particular).

 

Maybe the fans want blood, but our players know better. Maybe karma will get him one day.

even though mcdermott is a keep your composure guy it gets to where you letting a bully push you around. Preseason would have been prime time to light him up take the penalty 

I think it was a preseason game against Denver (I’m remembering preseason games, I have a problem!). Some douche on Denver took a cheap shot on a Bulls player and Stevie Johnson went after him.  I love Stevie.

It is sad that fans get more fired up stuff like that than players who should be sticking up for their brother.

I think many players are afraid of getting fined? Would it be worth $40,000 of your game check to take a shot against someone? Most players I think would say no. 

 

And also, a 15 yard penalty in a close game could decide a win or a loss. The coaches would NOT like that.

I could be wrong but some players pool money together to pay for fines.  I’d gladly chip in for a teammate who stood up for me.

 

but the bigger point is these guys don’t bleed for their teams anymore. I get it since teams can cut you at any minute.  But man, it would be hard for me to watch a guy just cheap shot my brother and not do anything about it.

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d81c8823a/article/leagues-official-player-safety-rules

 

3. "Blindside" Block. It is an illegal "blindside" block if the initial force of the contact by a blocker's helmet (including facemask), forearm, or shoulder is to the head or neck area of an opponent when the blocker is moving toward his own endline and approaches his opponent from behind or from the side.
