The penalty for this one needs to be gigantic, up to and including the loss of the franchise for present owners and all coaches involved banned from the league for life.
It even came with a price list:
Knock out an opposing player? $1,500.
Deliver the blow that results in an opponent getting carted off the field? $1,000.

The 2009 Playoffs really comes to mind with the tons of late hits on Farve and Kurt Warner. What made me even more upset was the officiating seemingly looking the other direction. I was afraid that they would do the same thing to Peyton Manning in the Superbowl.
