So I've mentioned a couple of times how the horse collar rule on QB's is ridiculous, and that it's just as dangerous IN the pocket as it is anywhere else on the field. It's happened to Schaub twice this season with no call. Matt Stafford is now injured because of - what else? - a horse-collar tackle in the pocket.
I really think this needs to be addressed, and sooner rather than later. As defenses start to realize those horse-callar tackles are not going to be called, you'll see it more and more, until someone's career is destroyed with a nasty injury.
