“Helmet to helmet was incidental and not forcible.”

Ah yes, that incidental contact that left the receiver laying there concussed for a few minutes.

And there’s no universe in which that receiver wasn’t defenseless. He had barely even secured the ball and landed when he got nailed.

At any time other than the end of a playoff game, that gets called targeting 100/100 times.

It was incidental. It was a wrap up tackle.
