NFL defenders lead with their heads because the RBs also do. If you don't lower your head when a stocky RB lowers his, you'll get blown up and give up a big gain. Unfortunately, because RBs aren't penalized for lowering their head often, defenders while always lead with their head or shoulder.

Can’t lead with your head with no helmet. NFL hasn’t figured that out yet. Protective gear ain’t just for the defender

This is a great example of text book tackling.great for improving skills for tackling one on one.thanks for uploading this.

As an American who played football, I admire how technical Rugby tackles are. Rugby players always aim to wrap then follow through like a double leg takedown while in American football there is a lot more collision due to players running top speed just to run over someone. I believe it’s because of the gear that football players don’t care much about technicality. In fact when I played you get to be more badass and celebrated by people when you run over someone without going down with them, just standing in front of them while they’re laying on the ground after giving them a big hit makes you look powerful. I can attest that when I put on shoulder pads and helmet, I feel more powerful and fearless. Both sports are definitely tough no question about that.💪🏈💪🏉.

It’s not that rugby players focus on tackling like that because they WANT to it’s because they HAVE to. There’s a rule saying that you have to make an active attempt to wrap and when tackling your head and shoulder must be below the nipple. These rules are in place to keep people save as well as in my opinion make rugby one of the safest contact sports out there. Injuries due to collision are few and far between due to the strict rules around tackling. It’s even worse at the highschool level (which I played)

Yes because rugby is all about technique, American footballers try to push and battering ram people over with their heads, that’s ineffective. The lower you get, the easier someone will fall. Rugby teaches technique. Think of rugby like heavyweight champion fighting for UFC or boxing, and NFL like a street scrap. Also rugby is 11x more popular than NFL, I feel muricans seem to think rugby is a small sport hahah. NFL is literally a niche sport.

With all the research on concussions and CTE and this is still allowed? Edited to add: I would really like to see your stats showing that rugby is 11x more popular than American Football. Considering each NFL game has literally millions of viewer compared to MLR which is in the thousands. Average attendance for the NFL is 16.67 million, MLR 160,000. Revenues per season: NFL $16 billion. No stats for MLR on the website I saw but the Championship (equivalent to Super Bowl) had only 6000 people attend and watched by 500,000 (compared to 100 million for super bowl) so I’d say it’s safe to assume not even close.

American Football has been adapting Rugby tackling techniques for a while now bruv. They still need armour though...

The greatest rugby tackle of all time was Isitolo Maka on Olo Brown. Auckland v Otago, NPC Match, Eden Park, I think it was around 1998/9. To see the great Olo Brown, a granite of a tight-head prop get stretchered off the field was unreal. The tackle from Isitolo Maka came from the depths of the Pacific Ocean and folded Brown backwards, the body is not made to fold backwards. Instant lights out, curtains drawn, kids in bed 🛌 Isitolo Maka was a human wrecking-ball with so much mass and power. Henry Tuilagi is probably the only other person that is in the same league.

When you see football players breathing next to the other and them crying and rolling on the floor Is hilarious but this is a real man's sport

Any one of these hits would leave me permanently bed ridden.

NFL doesn't depend on endurance as much as Rugby. instead its about quick acceleration from running backs and wide receivers, strength and hand techniques from linemen, and good ball placement from quarter backs. Every down they set up their players for a different play. It's hardly "wet." The emphasis on quick speed makes for incredibly powerful hits, tackles, and sacks. that's the reason for pads. You are getting hit way harder than rugby. These highlights in this vid are hits you see regularly in a normal NFL game. Hell, concussions are more common in the NFL.
