This I would agree with.

 

 

Quote:I can tell you this, Heads Up Tackling is junk tackling. It causes smaller players to get hurt and then compromise their form.

 

No one has ever answered the question of "how does a smaller player effectively use this technique to take down a larger player?" and that worries me.
 

I agree, Deacon.  The program itself appears to be junk as well.  Unfortunately Goodell likely will continue the program, no matter how well guys like John Madden poke holes in it.
