They would have to ban roll tackles because that is where the whole "hip-drop tackle" thing comes from. The roll tackle was developed to protect the head of the defender and the knees and ankles of the ball carrier.
People think the this tackle causes alot of ankles injuries well they are going to go back to chopping people knees and feet at full speed see how many ankle injuries happen then lol.
