The QB slide is a legit and needed play in the NFL. Most running QBs have it down to a science and are able to protect themselves as a result. That's what it's for and I wholeheartedly think that it's a protection the QBs need and deserve.
But...
That freaking Oompa Loompa we saw yesterday uses the slide in a totally unsportsmanlike manner.
A QB is supposed to give himself up with the slide so that the defenders have time to let up and not deliver a shot to the QB.
Wilson does not do this... he has perfected the art of trying to bait the refs into having to call unnecessary roughness on the hits he takes when he does the QB slide. It's BS though, and I believe he should be called out for this by the league and not offered the protection the slide affords when he tries his little freaking gimmick. Watch him... he'll wait until the defender has to commit to hitting him... and THEN... he goes into his slide. He clearly does this on purpose and I'm sick of seeing it. We watched it yesterday.
He's gonna get more than a high ankle sprain from this puss ass crap. Somebody's gonna take his head off,,, and as far as I'm concerned,,, he'll deserve every bit of it.
Stop the madness GODhell... this crap is bush league.
