Tere should be a proximity rule, can bump nigs within 10 yards of ball carrier not half a field away.

pretty much. you can get called for roughing tho. like unnecesary roughness. which that guy couldve been flagged for.

the guy who was hit, was looking at the ball carrier. he was running/jogging to be in position to make a tackle on the ball carrier, IF the ball carrier doesnt get tackled before getting to him.

but yea thats american football. everyone can get hit. the ball carrier looks for holes created by his guys blocking. defenders try to evade blocks, and tackle the ball carrier. but there are infinite strategies within all of that

some defenders, like MIDDLE LINEBACKERS, are taught to blow up the block. so instead of running around a guy, he is coached to smash into the blocker, to clog up that running lane, and the greats blow up blocks, and then shed them to make the plays

but yea american football is weird

if i wasnt raised on it i probably wouldnt give a fuck
