Message: [QUOTE="sufandu, post: 5518198, member: 874"] No it's not. Most of those hits with crossing the arms and leading with the shoulder come from the side, not straight on. When a ball carrier lowers his pads (I agree with you on the ball carrier not lowering the head) and meets a guy head on, the defender is usually trying to tackle the way you should. Both guys can try to get low. Attempting a form tackle does not prevent a defender from trying to stay low. [/QUOTE]
