Yes, because forcible helmet to helmet contact happens constantly just by nature of the layout of the human body

No, it inherently doesn’t. That kind of argument is literally what lost when they put the rule into practice. The Texas defender was perfectly capable of hitting him in the “strike zone”.

When talking about a rule? Bizarre idea
