Bullshit what. I've watched that video a hundred times today. 1:07... Of course he had time to turn and see the defender, but Mcgahee had no time to defend himself from a h2h collision.

And from multiple angles defender had plently of time to close and wrap, it wasnt a last second thing man. He purposfly lead with his helmet at a 45 degree angle. He could have just as easily continued to lower his shoulder and stick Mcgahee in the ground like taught. That kind of headhunting is just dangerous....

A helmet to helmet hit IS legal if you are tackling a down field ball carrier. I think it was a clean legal hit. It's just the nature of the game.

Shit was clean and legal. Just brutal. Thats how football should be. Enough of this treating them like they are fucking kids. Let them hit.
