    For the record, I hate the targeting rule, as it’s rare for a player to actually do so intentionally, but, if it’s gonna be a rule, then call it correctly.
    He did not use the top of his helmet (former spearing). His facemask is up. When you lower your head your facemask is down. You can also use the crown on a launch so lowering your head is not the only way to get 9-1-3 targeting.

    The intent involved with targeting though is what this guy did. Flying in recklessly with no attempt to tackle. If you do that it's very unlikely you are going to commit targeting. In this case if he didn't commit targeting it wasn't for lack of trying. That's one of the reasons I'm good with the powers that be wanting this to be targeting.

    If thats targeting, they need to call it about 5 times a game at least. At the very least, the spirit of the rule is not intended to penalize that play. Its supposed to stop the Vontaze Burfict's of the world. Not a play like that.
    You ever play football?

    Guy 3 dips head, launches both feet in the air, hits player 1 in his helmet so hard with his helmet he spins him 180 degrees in the air while making no attempt at wrapping up to make a tackle. Yeah, that's targeting.

    Of course “they” are. Be careful, but not in the context your referencing.

    My eyes are still rolling ...

    Agree with you in the call. But it didn’t cost them the game as the Colts scored a TD on that drive.

I've seen situations where a league stated something like "we would have supported targeting" and the coach twisted that to say the call on the field was wrong

    It's very possible the league said this should have been called. It's close but depends entirely on how you interpret the crown of the helmet. His facemask and the forehead part of the helmet is what appears to make contact. We've been told the forehead is part of the crown. What I'm not clear on is if the forehead plus part of the top is what they meant (this is how it was always given as an example) or if a hit that includes only the forehead and facemask is also sufficient for 9-1-3 targeting (initiating with crown).

    I've shared this with several college officials and the responses based entirely on the guidance they've received on the crown is different. The action the defender had of just trying to blow up a defender rather than tackle him is dangerous and part of what targeting and blindside blocks are trying to reduce. That's why I'm ok if they want this called as targeting. I'm just not 100% certain this meets the current definition. If this is targeting any tackle that includes the facemask and forehead could be targeting. Do we really want that?

    Except it wasn’t close. The defender launched himself. Lead with his helmet and struck our guy in the helmet. That’s targeting 101 by any definition.

    It's hard to tell with the poor video quality, but it appears that the ball travels parallel or mabye a little bit backwards on that pass.
    It's OK to not be OK.

    Anyone got a link to the crypt-keepers post game presser for this game
    I enjoy the opponent’s side of the post game pressers much more than Listening to Entz.
