Danielle's not dirty

Something about this really impresses me...

yep, Darrisaw was getting beat and just pushed Hunter down as he was turning the corner on him, he maybe could have avoided the contact with SD, but thats not what is in a pass rushers brain as they are rushing the qB.

No it's not dirty, just a low tackle. It was legislated illegal not too long ago to protect QB's, but there is nothing dirty about it.

It was a penalty that injured another player. Draw your own conclusions.

Yep it was a low tackle. Roughing the passer, 15 yards. I don't care what Hunter meant or didn't mean to do.

Technically if the defender is blocked into the QBs legs its not supposed to be a penalty, its tackle football, lots of plays gets players hurt, its an unfortunate part of the game. IIRC we had a similar hit on Stroud that went uncalled.

Watch the YouTube above, it clearly shows Hunter grabbing both of Darold's ankles. Who cares what Hunter said after the play, he clearly went low even if he said he was blocked into Darnold. Hunter is full of shit and he should be fined for an illegal hit.

.......have a good feeling about this.

I don't think it was a dirty hit, but it's one he worried more about getting the sack than he did about the infraction. He had every opportunity to not tackle there just as a rushing d lineman doesn't need to hit the QB's helmet. Sometimes competitively you choose to do something that may cause a penalty. In a split second, he made that choice. The sack was more top of mind than the infraction.
