rjackson,
I agree somewhat with yoou that the game has become a little soft but with the sixe and speed of the players today you have to have rules against these kind of hits. I can remember in the 70's the Raiders main objective on defense was to send the starting quarterback off the field on a stretcher. With todays salaries and popularity you have to protect players. This is their livelyhood and for it to be taken away by an illegle hit would be unjust. The league also needs to ban cut blocking. That is the dirtiest play in football.
