quote:correct. it definitely was helmet to helmet. one angle shows it very clearly. what i saw that i don't think anyone has mentioned is that rsj didn't have to move. he ran towards the defenseless player and launched, albeit slightly. according to the rule, he could have positioned himself, stood still and still delivered a block for the runner.
By the letter of the rule, it was the right call.
quote:the rule errs on the side of caution which is the climate with all the recent injuries. hard to argue with. safety is paramount.
My issue is the rule

So what now players are just supposed to stop and not play, he didn't lower his head and launch, he made a blindside block, albeit a vicious one, but it was just a blindside block.
