I think the NFL and NHL have made a mistake making these types of hits penalties.
It's too vague. You can't judge in a split second if a player is defenseless or not.

These hits should be legal and players should stop running/skating in the middle of the playing area, like in previous years.

It's not the first time the refs will punish the result rather than the actual play, and it won't be the last.

Just a part of sports.

It's a helmet to helmet hit, are you kidding me? That's what knocked him out. Watch the replay again

Completely incidental. Also should've been a fumble.

Hah, DJ gallo from @sportspickle.

Collie is hurt. Vick is like: "Don't look at me."

Collie catches the ball and tucks it away. There's no way he was defenceless there. And the hit to the head only happened because he got hit into him. Garbage call.

Helmet to helmet contract is allowed in the NFL. Collie had secured the ball and become a runner. He's no longer a defenseless 'receiver'.

I think I'll take some time away from this argument because Collie is looking like he's seriously hurt and it makes me sick to my stomach

Are you blind? He doesn't lead with his head. Mikell hits Collie and it knocks him into Coleman's helmet as he's trying to pull back. Not to mention that it's legal because he wasn't defenseless at that point.

Awful result but a garbage call. You never want to see a guy down like this but to prevent that you gotta take all contact out of the game, which would never happen.

Great, just what we needed. Another reciever effing out for a long time. This is getting ridiculous. And that was a penalty but should have been a fumble. Clark, Gonzalez, Collie......wow. Blair White is going to have to pick it up big time.

All that being said, I hope Collie is okay.

HELMET TO HELMET HITS AREN'T ILLEGAL! Jesus Christ, learn the rules before you spout off.

Seems like we're getting closer and closer to that.

That pussification of the NFL is ridiculous.
