i am going to agree that he did lose his balance but it is his responsibility to makes sure and not hit the QB at the knees. It is a rule. It is pre-season. It was stupid on his part and a fine should be issued. That easily could have destroyed a young QBs season and damaged his career. Very few players actually would ever mean to hurt someone in a pre-season game so i don't credit him for lack of intent. He lost his balance but still recovered before making the hit which was after the pass to begin with.

As Joey T said after the play, 'just because you stumble doesn't mean you go low". I also agree with his assessment as he went on, 'he had plenty of time to adjust his hit". He really did.
