[QUOTE="vamosjackets, post: 108688, member: 216"] I didn't see anything malicious in the way he was trying to tackle DeAndre. DeAndre had just tried to run him over and the guy was on the ground with DeAndre basically on top of him (though off to the side somewhat). The guy grabbed DeAndre's legs because that's what he could grab. There's nothing wrong with grabbing a guys' legs to tackle him. That's what DB's do all the time. He grabbed DeAndre's legs and drove through him ... good tackle. It's a standard double leg takedown (in wrestling terms). 99 times out of 100 DeAndre doesn't get injured on a play like that. But, his cleat caught and them's the breaks. DeAndre may have relaxed a bit thinking the play is over and that may have contributed to the injury as well. [/QUOTE]
