What did you think of Matt Elam's hit on Randall Cobb?

    The problem with aiming for the midsection is if the receiver ducks now you have a blow to the head which is a penalty and a fine. If you aim lower if the receiver ducks you could possibly end up at the midsection.

    This is all the commissioner's fault that this is happening. There will continue to be more knee shots because players don't want that weak ass flag that is thrown every play these days. Even clean upper body shots get flagged these days. It seems that if the hit was hard, the pussy flag comes out and the great play is penalized. Hard hits are taboo these days, no matter where they are. Just ask Whitner of the 49ers when he made a hit on a ball carrier in the 2nd play of the game. Clean hard hit, flag. The NFL is basketball with pads now. The game is getting completely nit picky and the long replays take away from the flow and the excitement. The refs decide games now by leaving the offense on the field every chance they get. The defensive players are discriminated against all game in a lot of games I watch, it is bs and the game needs to tweaked so it is fair to everyone. Dirty hit, but I don't blame the guy who did it, there was no flag.
