    They hit like that not only to bring the ball carrier down but to also separate the ball from the ball carrier, intimidation plays a bit of a role also.

    They introduced pads and helmets because of the amount of deaths and crippling injuries. In 1905 , 26 players died in college football. Now a lot of players end up with CTE a brain disease caused by repetitive concussions and brain injuries. I find it funny how foreigners laugh at the pads and say our football is weak when the pads may stop death on the field but are actually a weapon. Like the old saying goes rugby is a contact sport, football is a collision sport.

    I was hospitalized 2 times just playing high school football. Both times concussions. The funny part is, I still miss it.

    Rugby is a contact sport the NFL is a collision sport. Other than you can't hit above the neck almost all of these tackles are legal about 20% of them aren't anymore. You should also check out greatest hits in college is even more intense. By the way these are NFL, College and high school that you're watching

    Off ball hits are legal and a large part of the game.  On the line you will be hit every play

    You guys might consider watching the "New Heights" podcast episode with Jordan Mailata, Australian former rugby player turned NFL player for the Philadelphia Eagles (who had a big role in his team's 2025 Superbowl win) and let him tell you himself about the whole pads vs no pads thing.

    unlike in rugby, we dont have to "wrap up". we cant lead with the head or helmet to helmet. the harder the hit (legally) the better, because you want the ball carrier/catcher (wr) to drop the ball.

    The tackle at about <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLuNfjbPBfs&amp;t=215">3:35</a> is an older game from before 1976. &nbsp;It&apos;s an example of a type of tackle that has been banned. &nbsp;It&apos;s called <i>spearing:</i> You deliberately put your head down and lead with your helmet. &nbsp;Coaches used to teach you to deliberately do this. &nbsp;It caused so many head and neck injuries (especially when it&apos;s helmet-to-helmet) that it&apos;s been banned since 1976. &nbsp;One spear gets you a warning and a 15-yard penalty, two spears gets you thrown out of the game.<br><br>Helmet-to-helmet contact is also banned, but the referees know that <i>inertia happens.</i> &nbsp;These are two men, each weighing 200 to 250 pounds, running full-tilt. &nbsp;They don&apos;t stop on a dime. &nbsp;(And when they DO, like when their cleats get stuck on the turf, it sometimes results in a case of &quot;knees are not supposed to bend that way&quot;.) &nbsp;So deciding when contact is accidental and when it&apos;s deliberate is part of the referees&apos; job.<br><br>The old black-and-white footage at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLuNfjbPBfs&amp;t=353">5:53</a> is another example of something you&apos;re no longer allowed to do. &nbsp;You cannot grab the face mask. &nbsp;Now, this does not apply to momentarily touching the face mask; this is specifically grabbing the mask and twisting, turning, pushing, or pulling. &nbsp;It results in either a 5- or 15-yard penalty depending on the severity, and you can get ejected from the game for it.

    the padding makes it worse because it gives you a false sense of safety lol

    You should hear the hits and the trash talk when they have the players mic&apos;ed up!! It sounds like automobile collisions.

    The helmet and pads help a lot, but it still hurts. When you&apos;re on the receiving end of a slobber knocker, you will feel it tomorrow.

    Just remember that these clips were not all necessarily legal hits, that wasn&apos;t the point of the video. Just because there&apos;s a rule doesn&apos;t mean it was followed, and just because the clip is so shortened you never see the ref toss the flag (and so on).
