Who's to say they weren't trying to hurt him? That's the problem with all this.

If guys are being rewarded for big hits, and being rewarded even more for knocking a guy out of a game, you almost have to assume that any borderline looking play was dirty and there was intent to injure.

Not sure how you're still not seeing the problem that bounties create.

As Laron Landry has shown many times over, going for the big hit also means there is a good chance you are going to whiff on the tackle (people seem to have forgotten this).

I lost all respect for Williams and the players that went along with it. I understand players trying to make hard hits, but any player or coach promoting hurting another player, should not play or coach in the NFL. After seeing that hit against Manning, it made me sick to think that Carter or Daniels got a bonus because they hurt Manning.

Is there a link to that video.

Never mind I found the video and it just looked like one was hitting him high as another hit him low from different directions.
