They even had a best hits video out until the weekend when Meriweather, Harrison and so on delivered some nasty shots that resulted in concussions. Then everyone was up in arms and they pulled the video. There are obviously some tactics that are without a doubt cheap. But it seems as though ever since that weekend, any hit that appears too violent in nature, or results in the player on the receiving end of said hit being hurt, even if it's legal, is scrutinized. Worse is the fact that some of the hits draw penalites for no other reason outside of the fact that they "appeared" too violent. I don't foresee any "cheap shots". The players know full well the NFL wants no part of something of that nature tarnishing their big show. It isn't the 70's when Jack Tatum blew up Sammy White and made him cry for his mommy.</blockquote>
