Seahakws have consistently been either the top or top three defenses in the NFL year in year out since implementing these techniques. They don't seem overly complicated, just a change of pace. Good call.

Played rugby for several years, always told people football would do well to adopt the rugby tackle. You definitely don't go in with your head, like a dumb a$$, when you don't have a helmet. This should help prevent lots of unnecessary targeting penalties and head/neck injuries.

Have you ever seen some of the nasty wounds caused by Rugby? 70 stitches in a forehead. Just stick with what we do! It's football!
