A viscous circle sounds kind of gross. Like a bunch of sweaty guys scraping the foam off each other's backs or something like that. I'm also glad we don't have that in this league.

I'm not quite sure I can agree with that... while I get the logic and agree with it... I think you also need to take into account of intention, and repeat offender?

For guys that are repeat offenders, I completely agree... guys like Bengals LB Vontaze Burfict, S Brandon Meriweather should get suspensions like that... or suspensions like 6 games after said injured players plays his next game, or maximum of a year or something.

But for a first offender or a potential accident? I'm not sure.

I think the only criteria for ejections and what the player does that day.

Though for the very worst repeat offenders (LB Vontaze Burfict, S Brandon Meriweather, etc), I could support giving them a yellow card per say, were if they get one personal foul then they're out. While others are currently getting two. But that's a lot for a ref to follow, and probably too much to follow. Though if it's only for the very worst, they might be able to do it.

I realize ejections and reviews are a slippery slope.

There have been a few times I'm the past few years when a Packer was going in for a tackle and the ball carrier dropped his head. Helmet to helmet contact. NFL Inc fined the packer. It can happen. Perhaps the packer would have kept his head up.

I am not saying to review everything. They wouldn't stop the game to see if it's a 3 yard gain or a 4 yard. But there are 2 or 3 times a game that it would help the officials. It works in other sports. It wouldn't add 5 min to the game.

Like you said, it's a slippery slope, but having NFL NY headquarters do it, instead of the refs on the field might make a lot more sense and timely. Of course they might need a bit of a large NY ref crew for that, but NFL could easily do it... IF they can get all the video and communication and everything else secure that they're already attempting to do.

Frankly I'm glad we don't have a league where cheap shots are normalized and things turn into a viscous cycle of players intentionally injuring eachother. Grow up.

The hockey example was more we had tough guys to prevent the natural tendency to want to take out the other team's best player.
