certainly not enough to overturn call on field.
And this is very important I think. It was called targeting on the field. So no, I am not the only one to think it was targeting. At least one guy with a yellow flag thought it was too.
I am pretty certain to over turn a call on the field there has to be clear, unambiguous proof to reverse it. You can say “their helmet’s didn’t hit”. Or “he didn’t make contact to his head!” But the unconscious guy falling to the turf is proof something happened to his head. And it was initially called targeting.
The rule even says if there is a question about it, it is a foul. Just crazy. Bad rule and an inconsistently enforced rule.

The video replay from the sideline (although backline also shows this) CLEARLY shows the helmets actually NEVER met. Bullard ended up going over Harrison's back behind his helmet after he hit him shoulder to shoulder as Harrison fell.
His foot is also literally on the ground at the hit. Then again if there is anything the modern world has taught me is people will only believe what they want to believe.
