If this was a running back, do you feel that this is still targeting?

Targeting is to protect the defender from breaking his own neck.

It doesn't matter if the ballcarrier is the running back, qb, wr, or a lineman after a fumble. Keep your head up and don't lead with the crown.

Dude, I’m not seeing it. And I ask that because QBs are usually given deference in instances like this. Fans are certainly more apt to call it targeting if it’s the QB as opposed to a running back who gets hit like this on nearly every play. If you want to die on this hill, cool. All I’m saying is I don’t think it was targeting and that’s how it was called.
