I agree in general but what I think TP was saying was the league is going too far to protect players.

This is a violent game, The contact shouldn't be removed from the game.
You have to be able to layout a WR going over the middle, I don't know how you do that if you get fined and suspended everytime someone goes down.

There is a big difference between a dirty shot and a clean hit that ends up hurting someone

No one player is bigger than the sport. No one outside of boston cares that Brady is gone for the year.

They need to stop overprotecting players.

and players arent that much bigger or stronger than inthe 90s, let's atleast get back to those contact rules.
