Far more skillfull? No, sorry they are not. Maybe in some cases just as skilled but it is something that is to hard to compare. I mean come on, have you seen ladainian tomlinson run the ball? Or Bob Sanders make an open field tackle? Talk about intensity.

EDIT: oops double post



Random drug screanings every now and then but so many of the players still use them.

Yeah theres some big boys for sure, but how skillful is it to tackle someone who doesnt even have the ball

And you pass forward,that takes alot of skill...

Thes big NFL players wouldnt last 80mins on a rugby field

Doesn't have the ball? What? They tackle the guy with the ball. And the offense destroys the guys trying to get the guy with the ball. Also, it is pretty damn hard to throw a ball pass a defender like Troy Polamalu. And sure they wouldn't do well at rugby, it is a totally differen't sport. That goes both ways. I would love to see a rugby team score against the Bears defense or stop the Colts offense. It just wouldn't happen.

IMPORTANT EDIT:
And about you calling MMA wrestling, and making a joke of it.
I would like to see you fight this guy even if you had a baseball bat.

I agree with you. And yes Cro Cop is very awesome. Soon he is fighting in the UFC too. I think he is fighting some no name guy. There will be much destruction.

Can you pin point a target with a ball at 50 yards, 40 yards, 25 yards even. I highly doubt it.

Rubgy is awesome, don't get me wrong, but NFL players are bigger and generate harder hits, and if Rugby players were that big and hit that hard, people would die. The pads are to prolong the life of the player.

Everyone should run the ball like that. Why go around someone when you can just go through them.

Isn't he paralyzed now?

Are you talking about league or union rules, because I've never seen (or felt, for that matter) anything like the kind of impacts in a rugby union game. It's one thing to get slammed by a 280 pound forward, but its entirely another to end up as the focus of a ruck or maul, or in the front row of a scrum.

Yeah. He took such a beating in his day.
You gotta watch the video of him in college, this one guy it literally stuck on him and goes flying in the air.

Okay, how about getting hit by a 300 pound defensive lineman at full speed? How about getting blindsided by that lineman? Now in Joe Montana's case, he had a helmet and pads to only suffer a concussion, which sadly put an end to his brilliant career. Now imagine that hit without pads: broken vertebrate, broken scapula, broken neck, cracked ribs, definitely a concussion, a number of injuries can occur.
