Big win for the Giants.

What actually constitutes a tackle? Sometimes I see what look like pretty complete tackles but they're allowed to play on.

reply

Needs to stop play. If they break free it can play on

Ok, so it's a little like "forward progress" being stopped in the NFL.

reply

It’s up to the umpire but they want the ball to keep moving and don’t want to stop play if they don’t need to. But if the balls all caught up in some tackles or piles of people they stop it

Holding the ball free kick is a bit tricky sometimes. Sometimes given quickly sometimes not at all
