Is this a clean hit?

Wasn't he fined by the league?

That would suggest it's not a clean hit.

Someone may do that to Brady. People are pushed all the time, but you don't extend your elbow directly into someone's knee.

You can see the Center after being beat pushing Wilfork from behind. Looks like he instinctually as going down tried to hit qb. If not pushed thats a 15 yard penalty for a low hit to QB.

he was fined for it but no flag called I believe.

I find it odd that you're openly critical of Cowboys players, and yet find ample time each day to defend every damn thing a Patriots player does. I can understand rooting for two teams, but the consistency isn't there. I wonder.

There was nothing "instinctual" about that hit. He clearly went out of his way to throw his elbow at Losman's knee. It is a dirty hit. Period. Regardless of whether or not he was pushed by the center. What was his fine? Anything less than $15,000 would be a joke.

His instinct was to hit the QB low? Ok I agree. Thats bad too if it was instinctual.

He's a patriots fan that also follows the cowboys... what did you expect?

And Wilfork was fined $12,500 for intentionally injuring Losman.

I think that if you "intentionally" try to or do injure a player that you should have a game or two suspension.

It was a crap play by a player that clearly went after the knee of the QB. I think he should have lost more than the money, definately a couple game suspension plus the fine. I guess the Pats will have to pull an Albert Haynesworth for anything to be done about it.

What fool can possibly think that is a clean hit? Even if it was an accident, it was dirty. My first reaction when falling is to put my hands in front of me to slow my fall, not to lead with my elbow. A blow like that can easily end a guys season, much less his career.

hit wasn't "dirty", a big guy moving that fast can't just stop folks, leading with his arm was much better than a helmet

i feel bad for you nors, everything you post is obsessively overanalyzed

That's true, but a guy moving that fast doesn't need to extend his body and his arm to deliberately hit another player.

leading with his arm was much better than a helmet

Ummmm.....duh. Does that make it OK to do? No.

i feel bad for you nors, everything you post is obsessively overanalyzed

lmao..."obsessively" and "Nors" in the same sentence...and it wasn't referring to him. 96% disagree with you and Nors. Analyze that.

That was totally wrong! I cannot believe some people think that was accidental or not a dirty play! The guy went for his knee plain as day when he could have just went down because he was not going to get the QB anyway!

Nors, I cannot believe you sometimes! And koolaid thinks it's OK?

:cool:

There was absolutely nothing wrong with that hit... if you're a Patriots fan.
