What do you mean he stopped a huge gain... did you not see the flag??? 15 yards, personal foul. 15 yards on any play much less against the Pats is a huge give up. When you say "anyone", its to general and open a whole can of debate. I like football and love football but you can't like accept the hit if it draws a penalty or why not take a gun onto the field and shoot the QBs as soon as they recieve the hike? I mean you're taking out the QB right who cares if its illegal?

Just because a flag was thrown does not mean the play was illegal. Both players were in the air and Kevin lead with his shoulders and not his helmet. this should end that argument ONCE AND FOR ALL!
"Caldwell remained on the ground for several minutes after the hit, before getting to his feet and walking off the field. The play drew a penalty for a personal foul even though the reply showed it appeared to be a legal, but brutal hit. " http://www.fantasyplaymakers.com/pla...n/fname/Kevin/ |

The Penalty is "uneccisary roughness a blow to the head"... this doesn't not have to be helmet to helmet, nor do you have to lead with the helmet. -illegal.
The second slow motion shot also clearly shows helmet to helmet contact. |

The way I see it....he may have hit his helmet against the reciever but it clearly shows that KK was trying to blow the guy up with his shoulder. he had his body turned when the hit occured. Its not like Kk went straight for his head. The helmet contact was incidental....his shoulder clearly knocked the wind out of that guy and well....thats the NFL.

Man please, if he did that last year in the BLACK & GOLD against Chicago we would have praised him. So the only thing I can say is thank you, after a few games last year you can't argue that we need a lil in your face, smash mouth, physical defense, I'm all for it. Way to go K.K.

well done
Well Done KK!! I don't like to see any player get hurt. But I LOVE to see big hits. He did go head to head but it wasn't his intent. Caldwell did end up ok...so all is good.
But I hope KK keep drilling boys like this...WELL DONE!! |
