Look how many complete B.S. calls we get with the "hit to the QB's head" rule.

Alfred Morris runs through every first tackler that gets to him...I really hope this stupid rule doesn't force him to change his running style.

No more Brandon Jacobs runs like this:



He made a career out of spearing people with the top of his helmet.
If any of those were to garner a flag it would be an atrocity towards mankind.
