Again, it's not rolling the ankle.its the same thing the Seahawks coach, they just call it the Hawk roll.

Amazing to me how you guys "see" things. I love the Cowboys too but if something is wrong, say it's wrong.
Nowhere do they teach you to grab the ankle and gator roll. You drive your eyes through their thighs to see your target, wrap up with violent or sudden hands, and turn the whole player as you roll. You don't gator roll body parts.

Its not taught but it happens in the heat of the moment. I've seen much worse. No big deal.Amazing to me how you guys "see" things. I love the Cowboys too but if something is wrong, say it's wrong.

Yeah, I don't know how to help you.it wasn't his ankle it was his knee, and yes when rolling you're going to twist something especially if the player you're tackling isn't trying to go down or isn't just falling the way you want him to go. it's impossible to control the ball carrier

You roll the body, it's fluid. We as humans bend at the waist and knee.
Trysten grabbed his ankle specifically and twisted, putting too much torque on the RB's knee.
There's a reason this is being talked about nationally, it was dirty.
Okay coach.Its not taught but it happens in the heat of the moment. I've seen much worse. No big deal.
It was wrong when Hill did it and it was wrong when the Seahawks did it in 2018. The only difference our coaches didn't cry about it.Amazing to me how you guys "see" things. I love the Cowboys too but if something is wrong, say it's wrong.

LOL whatever you tell yourself to sleep at nightit was not a dirty play. it happened due to what is called angular momentum in physics. if you fall out of a tree and land on someone under you, is it your fault you couldn't stop your fall in mid air? he was rolling and couldn't stop himself.
Okay coach.
Close your eyes.
Picture a running back running the ball and he gets tackled.
Now, picture a player arm-bars his ankle and violently rolls.
The running back's ankle, like all ankles, has a limited range it can bend. So once it reaches that limit, the torque transfers to the knee and causes a sprain a tear.
Getting tackled is part of football but this particular tackle (arm bar on the ankle) is not taught in football, like you said, but is in fact taught in MMA as a submission hold.
Can you picture it coach? Are your eyes closed? Can you see the broken RB on the ground, reaching in pain for his knee.
Now, imagine it's Ezekiel Elliott.
how about the shot at c d lambs knees on special team return in the game

If an opposing player did that to your player you absolutely should be upset.I don't have to close my eyes, I've seen it first hand, many times.
If its done on purpose, yes. This didn't look like it was done on purpose, just momentum. People making too much out if it.If an opposing player did that to your player you absolutely should be upset.
If your player did that to an opposing player, you should be ashamed and apologetic.
As a coach, I would expect you to defend the player and not jump on the bandwagon. This was not intentional......If an opposing player did that to your player you absolutely should be upset.
