mrags Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 Why on earth would Landry be shaken if he dished out what he believed was a clean hit?hes still human and could feel terrible for possibly ending the career of another player. Doesn't mean it was dirty
Nervous Guy Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 20+ years ago, Steve Tasker made a living off hits like this and people cheered for it. Oh, at least Bills fans did. That's correct, but the league has changed since then...the rules changed and that's an illegal hit.
Not at the table Karlos Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 That's my point above. Buddy just said we declined the PF and accepted the holding call maybe that's why.
yungmack Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 No, he shouldn't be suspended. BUT someone on the Bills should have broken his leg.
KellyToTasker Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 wel, my first reply would be, first the league would actually have to fine him. And if they don't, do you feel any differently towards the hit? But then I thought, it's the NFL, they fine just about anybody for anything. Hell, you get fined for not wearing team color sneakers. They probably will fine him. That doesn't mean the hit wasn't a clean hit on a player that is too clueless to realize a guy is blocking him. Look back a few years ago in hockey. Was the Campbell hit on Umberger legal? Sure was. A guy with a huge hit on a player that couldn't keep his head up. Shame on them both for not paying attention Sooo, have regulations in place....But not enforce them? He had a clear line of sight and completely teed off on AW. Good luck defending that Landry. There is no, "speed of the game" defense.
Andrew Son Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 No, he shouldn't be suspended. BUT someone on the Bills should have broken his leg. Yep, you can't control what the refs a league does. I want a team that self polices. Just another example of fans caring more than the players do. I can't believe the bills players let Landry anywhere near Williams when he was coming off the field...disgusting.... Hell, someone probably exchanged jerseys with the !@#$ after the game...
Dr.Sack Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 The intent is what matters. The intent and bodily action of targeting the head coupled with launching full force motion will be what gets him busted. That said A. Williams had to see that. Perhaps his peripheral vision is blinded by his style face mask?
dubs Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 AW was the man he was supposed to block on the play. Of course it was pre-meditated. He practiced it all week. I guess we can flag and fine players for doing film work throughout the week now too. Hot take city, population Mrags
K-9 Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 I don't think it was a dirty as everyone is making it out to be. In the moment, he's not thinking about things it is, he's trying to be a football player and dish it out. You could tell he was visibly shaken by what he did. I hope Aaron or okay but I'm not hating on the hit. Wow. As dirty a cheap shot as I've ever seen. Blatant head shot. There is no defending that. None. In the moment my ass.
Formerly Allan in MD Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 No, it was a clean hit. Landry appeared clearly upset about the injury. If the Bills defense had continually hit as hard as this wide receiver hits they likely would have won the game. It was a pathetic performance by the Bills, on both sides of the line.
Livinginthepast Posted October 23, 2016 Posted October 23, 2016 Definitely a dirty hit, definitely an illegal hit. It was also an unnecessary hit. He doesn't need to hit him to make the play work. Just get in his way. Instead he goes after his head on a blind side. Was there a prev play that got Landry mad at Williams? He deserves a suspension fro going after his head and jumping up to do it.

If the Bills defense had continually hit as hard as this wide receiver hits they likely would have won the game. It was a pathetic performance by the Bills, on both sides of the line. Clean hit? Is that why he took a 15 yard penalty for it? Because it was clean? I don't give a phuck how upset Landry "appeared." He deliberately jeopardized a player's health and the rest of AW's season. Any regret after the fact is bullschit.

KD in CA Posted October 24, 2016 Posted October 24, 2016 Suspended?? Come on. He might get a small fine. If this was hockey, everyone would be saying AW needs to learn to keep his head up.
