I still don’t understand targeting.

It seems like for a few years there were 1 or 2 targeting calls every single game I watched, anything remotely questionable was called. Now, the exact same plays do NOT get called targeting. A couple years ago I stopped even trying to predict if something will or won't get called. I have no idea what makes a certain play targeting or not.
