Two Hits That Show You Don't Need Helmet-to-anywhere to Blow Someone Up

[ACW]

Those Ravens may be PHYSICAL, but perfectly clean.
Week 1: Ray Lewis on Dustin Keller. Shoulder to midsection.

Two hits, both extremely violent, both textbook clean.

I'll add one more to that. I can't find the video of it, but the hit to Brent Celek in the Eagles-Packers wild card game in the fourth quarter. Shoulder to gut, and Celek couldn't get up.

S.T had more than a couple of hits like those. The Moorman hit comes to mind.

Roy Williams 31 had a number of those himself, people forget how good he was his first two years in the league and the hits he put on Shawn Alexander and Emmitt Smith were just brutal. Between rule changes and spirituality removing his anger issues almost tragic how far his play dropped.

I can't remember one helmet-to-helmet he had. Most, if not all of his explosions were clean.

I think he meant hits that were perfectly clean and led with the shoulder.

Taylor was a master of setting his body up to punish players in their stride. Every single one of his hits was executed because of flawless follow-through. That's why he was so effective. Too many players nowadays try to hit the player without having to lunge through them, so that the hit looks like the player his a wall. Kinda hard to do that considering today's offensive players.

I have a lot more respect for the "big hit" when the offensive player is facing the defender and not up in the air. It doesn't take much to put a receiver on the ground when he's looking the other way trying to catch the ball.

That almost sounds like that WR that blamed God for dropping a pass.
