Never liked full body tackles that target the legs. NFL should ban this.

Having torn my ACL all the way through, I have some idea.

But it looks like a dirty hit in my mind. It effectively won the game for Pittsburgh, and probably ended the Browns' season much like the Aaron Rogers injury destroyed the Jets' season.

Browns have a one-dimensional offense without a strong RB IMO. With Chubb out Pittsburgh linebackers could play pass coverage or pass rush. Yes, Ford had some nice runs but he's undersized to block when Watson needs to throw. You could see the difference in the second half last night. Watson was hounded by the Pittsburgh D.

was certainly gruesome. Hated in first Chiefs game someone tackled Mahomes twice around his ankles to take him down, knowing he had ankle injury last season. Don’t like it when they target legs like that either.
