But we also need to evaluate why it's ok for Carson Palmer and others to lead their receivers into brick walls. That's at least the second WR that Carson has contributed to potential paralysis that I remember. It's as bad as Flacco chucking it up to draw cheap PI. You can't outlaw downfield coverage strategies without limiting what the offenses should be able to do.

Also why teams don't leave in running backs and tight ends to block and allow their QBs to get clobbered left and right. Or throw the ball 50 times a game. Those big hits are on the offense more than they are on the defense. That big hit on Schaub they were running a screen to the left and basically let 2 guys in untouched.

Hmmm.... I thought they were playing tackle football, not flag football...
