The 20% will do fine, because they are focused on what they do.
It is the 80% that is in danger.
Because not focusing and not using your muscles and tension in a good way will hurt you when getting hit. Not focusing means you dont know where the tackle will come from. Not using the muscles and tension will throw you around like a doll.
I play hockey and not holding against a tackle hurts a lot.
