I understand why the guy was pissed. But it's football. D-linemen get blocked low all the time and it's within the rules to do so. Deal with it or don't play football.

Just because it's legal doesn't mean it's not cheap. I'm not arguing whether it's legal or whether it shouldn't be legal. I'm just saying it's a shitty way to hit someone. If Trent had done what he intended to do, Johnson could have been the one on the stretcher so I see where he's coming from.

As for the idea that he had to cut him: he did, but you can cut a guy by hitting his thighs. He was putting his shoulder pad on his knee, that's bs in my book. I would have told one of my backs to go after Jason Taylor with the same hit and see how he likes it. I think it should be a legal hit, but the guy still has the right to be pissed. Plenty of people get pissed about legal shots that they think are cheap, this is just another example of it.
