so if the ball carrier turns his boday, which looks like whats happening in #3, the defender will get penalized. Might has well just not allow tackling.

Penalized and ejected is the way I read it. Tm would have been gone for the game on that one hit, where the runner is turning himself to get hit in the head. You can't expect TM to get lower when he is running full speed towards a offense guy like that.

The nfl guys were talking about this the other night. With them making nfl guys get lower and lower, be prepared to see a lot of knee and leg injuries in the future. It will be the same for college athletes.
