    Titans tight end Bo Scaife suffered a left knee injury in the third quarter of Thursday night's season opener against the Steelers, and later in the locker room he blamed Steelers linebacker James Harrison, the NFL Defensive MVP last season. Harrison tackled Scaife on the sideline, causing a fumble that the Steelers recovered. "He dove at my leg. It was a cheap shot,'' Scaife said. "I have been playing my whole life and no one has ever hit me like that. So I know when it is real and when it is not real. So it was a cheap shot and I don't care if that gets back to him either.''

    a cheap shot? It's a tackle.. give me a break. I could see if he was trying to block somebody and went low. He tackled the runner by any means necessary.

    He did go right into his knee.

    You're taught to tackle by the legs...

    I think when a person who is as big as someone like Harrison is moving or diving his body around at a pretty fast pace it is hard to precisely hit someone exactly where you want to. Unfortunately Scafie did get hit on the knee, but football is a contact sport and that occurs in every single game.

    Steelers are a dirty team :shrug:

    :laughy32: no my response would be little more than a hand-to-forehand display of disbelief.

    I would have to look at the hit again but I seriously doubt it was anything. Scaife's just frustrated I guess.

    Sounds like a regular tackle to me.

    I don't care who you are. Scaife is a pretty big lad, you take big people low. Not cheap.

    We needed Jared Cook, would have changed the game. Scaife was doing very well, though. Hopefully his knee isn't as serious as Polamalu's

    He dove? It is cheap. You hit dude with shoulder at the players chest then wrap knee's up:groan:

    This was the tackle Harrison put on Scaife when he fumbled and Fox picked it up.

    So anything other then this video is a cheap shot? Please go back to the off-topic forum, you have no right to be in a sports discussion.

    That video is only half of the actual tackling procedure...but okay. So then diving should never be necessary? lol...
