re: Not targeting

They have to take into account that the ball carrier is being pulled down. It’s ridiculous to assume a defensive player can be going for a legal hit, the ball carrier called, trips, gets tackled and it’s the defensive players fault.
He really wasn’t though, on replay without the 2nd defender making the tackle I’d say the receiver escapes that first tackle 90% of the time. The first defender was barely pulling on him.
I have 0 sympathy as defenders are well versed on this on what not to do, but at the same time I don’t know a realistic option to do there either.

That was textbook targeting. Forcible contact to the head and neck of a defenseless player

Except, he wasn’t “defenseless”. He made a football move, and was moving upfield
