    Dude, he did NOT drive him into the ground. I've watched the league for forty fucking years and that was routine. He did not do the drive into the ground thing. I've seen that a million times and this was not it.

    Sure looked like he drove Rodgers into the ground.

    I didn't think so, just fell on top of him.

    I disagree. He engaged his core and bent slightly forward as he made the hit, continuing to drive his feet. You could look at it and say he was following through on a tackle but there was no reason to follow through there.

    The tackle on Aaron Rodgers was clean clean ..it was clearly clean.

    There was no leading with the helmet and any or severe helmet contact either. Aaron Rodgers was plainly and simply tackled and wasn't driven to the ground.

    How anyone could look at the replay of the tackle that ended Aaron Rodgers Season and maybe even threatening to his career success; isn't looking at it with an open mind.

    Aaron was vulnerable (out of the QB's Pocket) and the worst case scenario resulted.

    Stop looking at it then, until you have an open mind.

    I disagree. I think he landed pretty hard on him. Strong move. If you can KO the opposition - and legally - you should do it.
