Eagles hitting vs Dunta Robinson

1. The defenseless receiver rule wasnt till this year so video one is all good.

2. The Suplex wasnt really dirty but it was illegal he did get flagged on that didnt he?

3. Today with the new rule idk if they would call that on a defenseless receiver. Id assume no but idk.

4. Agree with what you said about that one.

5.It looks like his helmet hit his facemask. But Asante pushed with his arms so it prolly didnt affect him that much.

6.You are right. The same thing about the Defenseless rule being new

7.Jacobs got rocked but he got rocked legally

8. Defenseless thing is new so that wasnt illegal for that reason. Dawks helmet hit his but it looks like he was expecting Mushin to land different cause you see him move his shoulder forward. Still Illegal but not intentional.

9. I have it paused at 0:28 it looks to me like Robinson is pushing his shoulder forward but at the same time his head is down. He has his body down to where it looks like the hit will be chest level. To me it looks like he just made a stupid decision and not thinking about how fast Jackson was coming in. The speed caused him to hit the pads and glance upward and hitting helmet to helmet. Watch the video a few times Jacksons shoulder flings back before his head whips back. Dunta didnt do that intentional it was just a very very very bad decision.

So here’s to you, biggest prick in the NFL, Dunta Robinson. Keep making those highlight reels by shorting your career as well.

Considering what Harrison said afterwards I dont really think you can call Robinson the biggest prick in the NFL in fact i dont think its even close

The hit on DeSean was not and should not be thought of as illegal. Duanta hit DJax in his shoulder with partially his helmet and mostly his own shoulder period. The violent whiplash and Djax crashing to the ground is what did the physical damage to him.

defenseless is what was once considered perfect timing by a defender. I think as long as you’re not head hunting it’s a good hit. There is less than a second where a guy is focusing on catching the ball and nothing else. Thats when it’s at the defender advantage to sneak in and disrupt that thought process.

the Dawk hit on Crumpler was dirty is either a complete Jackass or a extreme eagle hater (or both which would most likely be the case ) he clearly hit him in the chest and didnt lead with his helmet. That my friends is classic textbook big clean hittting. The only cheapshot i guess i could call out dawk on would be the Ike Hilliard shot, and being that hes a Giant i gotta give Dawk a pass on that one LOL.

Like the first commenter said, the defenseless player rule is new this year. Spearing and helmet to helmet rules are relatively new as well.

Plus, I think we need to distinguish between “illegal” and “dirty” hits. To me they’re two different things. Robinson’s hit was illegal, but not dirty.

damn near always led with his helmet…forget the big hits on crumpler and others…dawkins would routinely attack a pile when a runner was in the process of being tackled and just try to get an extra hit in…

now is that ‘dirty’?

if a defender in the league isn’t trying to hurt someone on offense, what’s the point?

I’d say a good 85% of the hits are clean…and they are made VICIOUS, SINISTER, DEMONIC, MURDEROUS – by the 8,000,000,000 replays, 360 cams, slow-motion cams, and highlights every 10 minutes on sportscenter.

What is also the Biggest point is this: the majority of the offensive players lower their heads, helmets, and bodies at the very LAST second before they are hit…

so what happens is…many of these hits are clean…until about a millisecond before contact – because running backs, receivers, dip their head because they’re sense contact…it’s just instinct.

now, safeties who punish receivers/ defenseless players on things like overthrown balls, there’s no real defense there – i’m just saying the game happens at LIGHTNING speed…

and NO ONE at home – watching their 5000000 replays – understand that. I know I don’t.

You don’t think folks tackled this way back in the day? Of course they did. Bednarik and scores of ‘old guard’ players were dirtier than ever – because damn near everything was legal. Are you kidding me? they’re just weren’t 500 cameras breaking down every hit every 5 minutes – so no one thought anything of it.

the desean jackson hit was unfortunate, but it wasn’t dirty. you think Dunta Robinson wanted to knock himself out?

it’s part of the game – in this era, we just know about more, more conscious of player’s health – and more aware of folks getting KNOCKED out.

lol

This is legal because Asante doesn’t know how to tackle.

Intentional or not he hit him in the helmet on the play.

Dawkins hit on Mushin would indeed by considered illegal by today’s standard and I have no problem with that or saying that.

All the other hits would still be legal. The only one I’m not sure about is the Brandon Jacobs one. While he is a runner, helmet-to-helmet hits are illegal no matter what. But that ruling has always been hazy as officials seem to look for intent, rather than result, when calling that.

1. As for the content of the post, I don’t think any of those were dirty. However, that is a sampling of some of the biggest hits.

2. Damn, I miss BDawk.

3. You want to look up Eagles’ dirty hitters, go find some Andre Waters clips, lol.

i feel bad for jackson and obviously i wish him a speedy recovery. but jackson had the ball in his hands and defenders are paid to make sure he doesn’t hold on to it. dawkins would have blown him up too and he would have been glorified here for it.
