topwop1 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 This guy sucked in Chicago and still sucks as we saw the other night. Can't make tackle to save his life. And the Bucs wonder why they have a bad secondary with this guy as one of their starters... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can clearly see Conte's head twisted around - NOT THAT I'M COMPLAINING but isn't that the reason why they don't want defenders yanking on RB's facemask?

Meanwhile, the guy they let walk in favor of Conte is currently one of the best SS's in the NFL (Bradley McDougald) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes been above avg in PFF grades and doesn’t seem that bad? nice stiff arm but it’s not like he’s the only guy that got trucked hard this week He's not. Conte's been a decent starter for much of his career, but for whatever reason, everyone seems to have a vivid memory of every single mistake this man has ever made... Chicago fans would watch an opposing RB slice right through the defense at full-speed, untouched leaving it to Conte to drag the guy down; then complain about the way Conte tackled him... It's not as bad in Tampa, but he gets similar treatment. Notice there is no criticism for LaVonte David who blew the coverage and let McDonald get wide open in the first place.... A play like this happens at least a dozen times on a given Sunday, but it's Conte, so everyone has to point and laugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this was the NFL, Fournette would have been fined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaserFocus Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Nobody enjoys seeing a player get hurt, but the national reaction from this play is yet another reminder of the essence of football. Yes, it's fun seeing those passes to graceful receivers for big gains, but the origins of the sport still resonate today. It's physicality, it's one man hitting another as hard as possible to achieve a desired result. Unfortunately, some people in the league office, and some writers outside this website don't understand this reality. Violence is part of the DNA of football whether we admit or not.

I'm pretty sure we all get it. That's why parents aren't letting their kids play. Which will be a big problem for the NFL if it continues. Thus the changes.

We almost never hear about the scores of successful former NFL players who are excelling well after their playing days ended. And plenty of parents are letting their sons play, because the sport is still a positive in our society. This issue of player safety has been framed wrong from the beginning, we can have our cake and eat it too. The changes to the game in recent years have been moronic, smart change is the way to go. This isn't rocket science. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
