Was a perfect opportunity for the NFL to try out their new rule in ejecting players immediately for those hits and giving fans a little more faith in the future of this game.

 

 

Of course, they failed.

Very dirty hit!

Inconsistency of rule enforcement, selective timing of enforcing holding and PI, inconsistency of what a completed pass is ... these are bigger issues that are dooming the future of the NFL than the flag/ anthem issue (IMO).

Goodell et al are destroying the integrity and purity of the sport.

Poo happens...he'll get fined and rightfully so. Trevathan isn't a dirty player. Seeing things in slow motion over and over again riles up the masses...in real time he was making a football play and happened to lower his helmet at worst possible time.

you dont have to be a dirty player to make dirty plays. Optics matter, people see the way you treat your players and its bad for the game.

.... and more parents won't let their kids play football as we witness this game die a slow painful death. 

 

Sorry, examples need to be made if you want this game to exist another 20 years.

To act like vicious hits will never happen is ridiculous...regardless of rules, fines, suspensions...im sure Trevathans intent was never to paralyze the guy. Football is violent and when violence is expected these things will happen. You can't legislate or penalize this stuff from happening.

It actually looks worse in real time. It was 3rd and goal too and he was clearly about to go down.
