Truthfully you can look at that a lot of ways... first off the refs were letting plays go on after wrap up all night. ( Blow the damn whistle) So let's look at this objectively, the piles moving and no whistle. He's screaming into a moving pile and drops his head and BOOM! It was an unnecessary hit and it's stupid. However, I have seen a few Packers do the same thing and not get flagged.I wasn't on here last night, what did everyone think of the Travathan hit on Adams? Looked like classic targeting-style hit to me. Adams wrapped up already and this was just a kill shot on a guy who couldn't protect himself. Not even bang-bang, he lined him up.
My personal view is this, a penalty was called, a big fine is coming AND he needs to be told anymore BS your sitting 3 games without pay. ( first offense hits shouldn't draw suspensions but that's just me)
I've seen a lot worse hits at lower levels, I am sure Crease and TW , as well as 44blitz, can attest to that.

But I do have an issue with Trevathan going headfirst into the pile like that. Coming from behind like that, he should have been pulling up b/c the last thing you want is to drive the ball carrier further down field. When the guy is stacked, we were taught to get our arms in there and try to poke the ball out.
