100% agree. The problem is that teams will emulate what this guy did. So punt teams will be scared to let a guy go and will just smash guys who legitimately called fair catch.

The other thing from the weekend was the lack of a whistle in that Bills game when Taiwan Jones helmet got ripped off. Guy could have been killed. Haven't heard an update but it looks like he got a concussion and a slew of stitches/staples as he was bleeding profusely from the head.
