I played a down or two of football and I assure you we were taught to keep our heads up from day one. I don't care how tough or old school a coach is, he doesn't want a dead or paralyzed player on his watch.

Both calls were bullshite! This is football not soccer!
That hit he got ejected for is the same one that got Shazier paralyzed.

No disrespect but where you a beater or a blower in high school? By that comment you can tell you played a down of football. He sits back he gets run over and no lb wants to get ran over by a Quarterback. Yes he lowered his helmet but you will never see a coach get onto a player for what he did! People like you make comments about football.


You clearly have never played a down of football. Or you are 75 years old and need to log off the internet.

He didn't lower the crown of the helmet and didn't launch. He got tossed because where he hit him not where he hit him. Bang Bang play its very hard to lay off.No coach in America will get on a kid for that hit. He didn't lower the crown of the helmet and didn't launch. Was it targeted Yes but in a bang bang play its very hard because the runner is lowering his head and shoulder. We also watch the same video.

Post like this tell me you did play football and you are suffering from CTE from too many tackles leading with your helmet.

He did lower his helmet... you literally said that word for word in your previous post.

Our coaches got on our cases for hits like that all the time. Granted, I went to a small private school and none of us were going pro, so our coaches cared more about us not breaking our neck than making a big hit.

He didn't lower the Crown and that is 100% fact. He got tossed for forceable contact to the head.

That is a lowered crown, and contact to the ribs, not to the head.

Congrats, you are retarded 2x

If you say otherwise, you don’t know what the crown of a helmet is and probably should stop talking.

Anyone that’s ever played football has heard “see what you hit”.

He absolutely lowered the crown but didn’t hit fields in the head
