It's so weird how these terms and talking points materialize. I've been watching football for 40 years and never heard the term "hip drop tackle" until very recently. It may have been discussed, but not at the national media level and not with any real interest. All of this is media generated garbage. Guys can't sit and wait to decide how exactly to bring a defender down when they are a few yards from the end zone. They make a play or they will eventually be out of a starting job.
I take no joy in Andrews getting hurt. Frankly, it sucks. I still think it's dumb to pretend that it was some intentional hit job. He's hard to bring down and he's bigger than Wilson by quite a bit. Logan did what he was supposed to do.
Football is always dangerous. I just watched a 10-11 youth game where two kids got taken away in ambulances for head injuries. It's a collision sport no matter how safe you try to make it. Even snap and every collision has the potential to injure someone. Making victims and villains out of it is dumb as hell. It's the nature of the game.
