I understand protecting the QB even more since the Bears HAVE a QB! I don't want to see cheap shots like the one the packers did on McMahon a long, long, time ago that I have still not forgotten. But that penalty in the preseason where Alex Brown fell on the QB after a sack (as one tends to do when knocking someone down) was ridiculous. So yea, it is getting too pussified if a legit sack is a penalty. You can't tell 300 pound, super fast, men to be violently aggressive but don't hit the QB too hard if he is stupid enough to stand in the pocket while you run full speed at him. They can't hit the head. They can't hit too low. Hell, just make the pass rush count to three before blitzing and have the QB wear a red shirt with a matching pink skirt. Maybe the QB's can wear little silk flags to pull off like flag football. I don't want anybody to get hurt. If they can't take the hits, put more armor on them and play FOOTBALL.
