Peel Back Blocks

[SE Minnestoa Re]

Personally I think any hit where the blocker leaves his feet to launch himself should be illegal. However, my personal feelings do not come into officiating. We officiate the rules, not our personal statements.

On these blocks, the receiver of the block often doesn't see the guy coming and when he is plastered, his head is the first thing to hit the ground. That's where concussions come into play.
