It's often difficult to determine what's deliberate and what's not. Vick has had problems with concussions, so a helmet to helmet hit could be construed as deliberately trying to put out his lights. But often helmets just hit helmets out without any deliberation -- it's a violent sport. And I don't think defenders should be penalized by being forced to sit out an entire year because of it. The NFL is becoming way too wussified. Butkus, Lambert, Lott, and (Deacon) Jones wouldn't have lasted 3 games without being booted out of the league with the way the rules are now constructed.

The old timers played when players where not nearly as big and fast, and they tended to tackle in the proper manner, wrapping up the runner with their arms, instead of launching into them.
