Don't forget the guy who hit the punt returner, and Gundmussen's late hit on a lineman.

 

All 4 should sit the next game to remind them to not make stupid mental mistakes that hurt their teammates.

If he really wanted to punish them he'd make them play in his schemes, sitting on the bench getting to talk about how you could have made the difference in the game seems like a reward.

They both should sit.  Not much excuse for that behavior.

 

Surely you mean just Davis, right?  Dunk's ejection wasn't based on "misbehavior."  

 

 

I actually agree

Dunkley should not have to sit out next game. Was not his fault that WR jumped into him.

Dunkley being ejected is an embarrassment to the sport. What was he supposed to do? Take the guys knees out?

Actually, yes. That's the acknowledged byproduct of this rule. Knees can be fixed, brains, not so much.

I know it.

But on that specific play the least amount of force he could impart is by doing what he did. He'd have to lower his head and actually target to hit him anywhere else.

Now you see how stupid the new rules are. Football is just not he same game. It is one thing to actually head hunt in which Dunkley was not doing.  WR jumped into Dunks who was already in the air trying to make a play on the ball. I can see getting a penality but to call that intentional and eject him is wrong. They need to send that tape in and appeal it.

Unfortunate call and its part of the game. When helmets collide and the defender is tilted forward, I think it's expected to be called.

Well, not stupid at all, they are designed to reduce brain injury. How often has a USF player been ejected since they were enacted?
