Suggested NFL rule change:

It sounds good in theory but will just frick the saints at an inopportune time

That’s not a good rule. You’ll have teams unethically rule players out just to a key player from the other team out also

I'm not understanding what you're saying. What I'm saying is if a player targets another player with a cheap headshot like that and knocks them out then that player should also have to sit out. At least until the original player they knocked out comes back in. It creates an unfair advantage for the team that gets the player knocked out. Injuries are part of the game but only incidental injury should be part of the game not injuries where another player does something considered malicious by rule.

He wasn’t intentionally head hunting on that play. No reason he should have to sit.

I might have worded it bad but that's not really what I meant.

What I meant was, if the point penalties is to even things out and correct a wrong on the field then how do you even things out when the penalty caused a player to get knocked out of the game? Shouldn't the other team also have a player "knocked out of the game"? Especially when the whole point of the targeting penalty is to prevent injuries that cause players to be knocked out of the game.
