I'd consider it a hit. The defender was full speed an delivering a blow. TOTALLY AGREE with a penalty for it by the letter of the rule ok fine. I have issue with that assitant who grabbed and held him as he had a few words with him.

You may put hands on your players to show or explain something but NEVER do you touch another player on another team. You have no reason to ever. He gets nothing???

Matt Ryan is 6-4 213lbs, Hall is 5-10 195lbs.. a shove
Hall is exactly Rodney Harrison.

The hit was definitely out of bounds and should've been flagged, no question, but is not like Hall speared Melt on the back of the head.

Hall didn't do the late hit. Landry did and was fined 5k. Hall ran over to pull Landry out of there and then the Assis Coach grabbed him, then Smith got into it.

Haynesworth was also fined for coming into it.
