wrong. If a player is going to have that much momentum, he needs to understand the risks. Same as when you are rushing the punter.

well I'll side with Troy Aikman(probably a first) who thought both calls were too touchy.
The NFL protects QB's way too much any way you look at it.

actually no. Aikman thought it was the proper call. he just said it was "tough" on the defensive player.
Like I said, you have to rush the QB properly. Simply running full speed all the way is risky.

Just like they drew it up!
(That throw by Favre was dumb as hell.)
