Yup. I feel like he's trying to endorse the league's effort to make the game safer on every tackle. Defenses are basically screwed nowadays, they'll call anything if it even looks remotely rough. There's basically a personal foul call for every type of big hit out there. Any wideouts/ST returners that get laid out can expect a personal foul for hitting a defenseless receiver. Any running back that initiates h2h contact will get a personal foul call for a defender going h2h. And any qb that gets hit can expect a personal foul for roughing the qb.
