    Great hit, fuck everyone who says otherwise.

    Taking a shit all over the grave of Curtis Williams is fun.

    You all are referencing the first part of the rule which is a precondition for one of the following listed at the end. did he lower his head before atacking? His arms were out ready to wrap. In any case, fucking awesome hit.

    You're trying too hard to lawyer this. Nobody cares what he's doing with this arms. His head (crown of his helmet) made contact with the player first. That's why the kid was almost folded in half. It's why they use that method ... it delivers the big hit. Great hit, and I'll concede it takes big ones to come in like that and lay the lumber ... but it's very fucking dangerous, particularly for the defender.
    head and shoulder hit concurrently IMO but I think he should have had his head further up which would have protected his neck. Still, I don't think it was illegal and if it was illegal it should NOT be. And pretty much the whole fucking stadium thought so too!
    Oh, well with that information I'll have to reconsider my position.

    This isn't an IMO thing. The top of his helmet hit the kid in the chest plate. There's really no way to do that and have your shoulders hit at the same time unless you have no neck, and he does.

    If that's not targeting, they ought to just forget about it and let the players risk it. Dangerous play for the kid and simply not worth it.

    Bad call. If you slow it down and go frame by frame, it's clear his head was aimed at the ball and his shoulder made 90% of the contact with the RB's chest. His helmet hit the left side of the RB and his shoulder is what sent him backward. To anyone who watches the frame-by-frame replay, it's obviously not targeting.

    Turdbuffer has it right. Those frames are the proof. Great, legal hit. Case closed. Frame 2 from turdbuffer clearly shows where his head is. Arms outreached in frame 1. Clean awesome hit. Let's hope Luke Falk gets the same hit from Jojo. GO DAWGS.
