Joe Starkey: The essence of pro football hasn't changed, no matter what Greg Lloyd says

Dear old-school zealots, did you not watch the games last weekend?

Did you not see the Atlanta Falcons administer a tackling clinic in stifling the highest-scoring offense in the league?

You can still play great defense.

Did you not see Cam Newton splattered all over the Superdome turf and Dante Fowler Jr. slam Tyrod Taylor’s head so hard into the EverBank Field grass that he sent him straight into concussion protocol?

You can still crush quarterbacks.

Did you not see Travis Kelce absorb a skull shot so vicious it left him wobbling like a dazed boxer?
