Swatting?
The way Aaron Donald injured Brees seems like the perfect crime. Come in late trying to knock down a pass, focus on the QBs outstretched fingers not the ball, and slam straight in with the force with your entire body behind the open handed swat. Its after the play, its likely to cause injury, but you won’t get caught. There were no rules deaigned to punish it adequately. If you hit the kickers foot after a kick you are penalized but the QBs hand after the pass is fair game, incidental, just trying for the block even if serious injury ensues. Maybe we should start coaching this for the next time we play one of Roger’s teams?
