If defenses are incentivized to play dirtier how has that made the game safer?

You're literally making up a scenario right now and acting like it's happened or happening.
Once again what would stop those same defenses from sending bottom of the roster guys to **** up the already concussed QB further?
If Mahomes is slow to get up and people realize it's a head injury and he gets let back in, why would the defense which you keep presuming is playing dirty target mahomes' head specifically knowing it will not only **** him up for the current game but for future games as well?
