The tackle wasn't all the violent it was just a hard hit with a full body landing on Rodgers with extended arm.

Of course we wouldn't be making that big of deal if he hadn't got hurt. But every time a QB - or anyone else - takes a hit like that there's a chance for injury.
I don't think it was an illegal hit but my beef is it was unnecessary. Barr didn't need to tackle him.
