No it's not. Steroid monsters make it so. Get rid of them and things would get much safer. But nobody wants to face up to that.

thousands of people have played football without ‘destroying their bodies’...that being said, yes the game, as it is played currently, needs to be stylistically redefined; superfluous contact must be minimized, in favor of good form blocking and tackling...

high tech equipment, while great as far as it goes, is not the final answer; until players view themselves as ‘opponents’, and not ‘targets’, unnecessary injuries will follow...
