What's the point? The hit was below the shoulder on a receiver with possession of the ball. It was a bad call. Period.

And I don't give a crap if Williams didn't get a flag or the Cowboy fans aren't bitching about it. His hit on Williams is the exact same hit/reason why Page got flagged. It was a hit on a defenseless receiver who never had a chance on the ball. It resulted in injury. However, as you've had Lynch on your team for the past couple of years, I imagine that you've steeled yourself against other teams complaining about head shots/late hits/hits on defenseless receivers, and have come up with a litany of excuses to justify them. e.g., Williams hit on Williams, "a smarter player wouldn't do that."
