Frick the SF fans. What about the helmet to helmet shot on Pierre that took him out the NFC championship game that was not called? The probably thought that was great form.
Could have been the difference between Saints and SF advancing.

After watching the Brees hit from last year, Brooks' shoulderpad contacts drew's helmet. You can argue about brees being short, or that brooks' arm contacts drew in the chest first, but the bottom line is that the new rules dictate that any contact to the qb's head (incidental or not) will be flagged.

I don't think that was a penalty that year. As long as he was not defenseless or the defender did not spear him, helmet to helmet hits were allowed in the open field. This rule has since been changed, but as bad as the hit was it did not warrant a flag under the rules that were in place at that time.
