Hi Yall, Just wondering if a CB can push or block a WR etc, from a potential catch, or are they just allowed to tip or spoil the ball and tackle the receiver...
Also, does the tackle have to be above the waist or can you get tackled around the ankles???? Last edited on 2011-10-31 06:48:03 by TuffGong |

After a few yards from line of scrimmage, the CB has to keep his hands of the WR until he makes contact with the ball.
Since this is a contact sport there is a gray shaded area of bumbs and contacts, but if hand graps are visible, a flag is thrown for interference (a very hard penalty in yards and downs). At tackling not allowed is a hemlet to helmet hit while the receiver can't see the tackler, a faskmask grap at the helmet, a grab from behind and pulling the WR down at his neck. i think that's it.
Of course kicking and punshing is also off the mark.  |

Of course kicking and punshing is also off the mark. Nice explanation, Jack. I think the interference flags are the most discussed on the field, since mostly both guys are touching the other, and it is hard to judge if it is an offense or defense pass interference. |

The problem is the HANDS-OFF rule in addition to a full contact sport and the tactical advantages of using bodies as seperator and barrier. That's a problem in many sports, like basketball which in theory is a non contact sport, but in reality sometimes tooth are knocked out. |

The CB could have contact, exclude holding, if he faces the ball and not the Receiver.
The cards lost their game yesterday because of 3 Deff pass interference in the endzone or in the 5 Yard zone. So 3 easy short distance TDs for the ravens. |

An you have the star factor. A verteran like Charles Woodson can touch more than a rookie like Patrick Peterson.
