Saw two different analysts on ESPN this morning, and even they can't agree on WHAT hits are bad hits.

One mentioned the Steelers fine being the biggest because of past history. The other spent half his time talking about how much of a joke the fine was because" there was never any helmet contact.

I was glad the league went out of their way to fine more than just the 2 guys that were obviously causing dangerous situations, but the reactions from the ESPN analysts show how subjective some of these things can even be,

See, I look at the hit from the Eagles / Falcons game, and I see head hunting and definite hitting with the helmet.

To me, head hunting a receiver should be flagged and tossed, but that's another rant. It just shows that when two different people look at the same video, they see what they want.
