Lots of fail on both sides in this thread. It wasn't a penalty because (a) Dial did not lead with the crown (top) of his helmet, and (b) Murray was not a defenseless player. The rules treat a passer who has just released the ball (McCarron) as a defenseless player, but not a defender looking to make a tackle (Murray)...regardless of how half-assed Murray was pursuing the play.

Lots of people here should actually spend a few minutes reading the rule book. I'm not going to copy and paste...you can read for yourselves.

You're welcome.

You might want to look around Rule 9.

It's funny how this narrative has turned. First it was OMG that was so dirty that he hit him there (obvious horseshite, there was nothing illegal about hitting Murray in that case, and defensive players love to take out a QB on an interception return) to holy shite it was helmet to helmet.

It was helmet to helmet and should have been a penalty but the rantards never disappoint.
