The idea of bountygate was that knocking out an important qb is well worth whatever fines or penalties you get. Offense loses a huge piece, and defenses at worst lose a player who's probably replaceable. Huge incentive for even dirtier football. Especially in the playoffs where desperate teams will do anything to win.
So let me ask this question instead? How do you disincentivize this? Because penalties and targeting barely accomplishes that.
