FWIW there is no helmet to helmet contact here. I have looked at it very closely on a 60'

How do you use your shoulder without your helmet hitting anything? He led with the shoulder and the helmet contact was unintentional.

I dont' think launching means you need to be in mid-air at the time you hit the guy. He launches into the guy, as proven by the fact that his feet are both off the ground a half-second, at most, after he hits the guy. EDIT: Apparently this is not launching after all. To be launching you must leave your feet before contact. INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana -- NFL owners have approved rules amendments for player safety that include eliminating a player launching himself into a defenseless opponent. The 32 owners have voted unanimously to enhance the protection of defenseless players. Anyone who leaves both feet before contact to spring forward and upward into an opponent and delivers a blow to the helmet with any part of his helmet will draw a 15-yard penalty. Such tackles also will be subject to fines. The definition of a defenseless receiver has been extended. Now, a receiver who has not had time to protect himself or has not clearly become a runner even if both feet are on the ground is considered defenseless. http://www.cleveland.com/ohio-sports...ayer_safe.html So it's not launching, but it is a head/neck hit (chin really) hit on a defenseless player, so it's still illegal and he should still expect to find a nice note from the NFL delivered to his doorstop.

So you seriously think he's not going to get $10,000 or whatever note from the NFL this week? I'd be very surprised if he didn't.

not supposed to lead with your helmet, and sort of caught him under the chin. It is borderline illegal, but the bigger question is was it needed? He just needed to get in that guys way to take him out of the play, and instead, he went for a kill shot. Not cool.

Tate should have just taken out his knees. That way it would be legal.
