Turns head to avoid leading with crown of helmets..

No one better says it was intentional

Perfect example of the hit, was not in any ways intentional to injure otherwise Williams wouldn't have gotten up after a minute or two.

Intent means nothing. I'm sure James Harrison wasn't trying to decapitate Mohamed Massaquoi, it just happened. It's about proper form on tackles and getting players to not lead with the helmet.

This being the most egregious hit since the crackdown, plus it was on national TV, I would expect we won't have Nick Collins against Minnesota in 2 weeks.

If Merriweather and Harrison didn't get suspended for their hits, Collins shouldn't be suspended for this hit.

However, C'mon Nick, that was unnecessary.

I second this opinion

Another thing that bothers me is that it was 35 to 7 at that point. I get that you want guys to keep trying, but at that point you have to know the score, know the situation, and be smarter than that.

Collins was fined $50,000, but no suspension, which is good.

Oh Lord! At least no suspension though. I find it odd Coleman wasn't fined. That dude taken out on a stretcher, looked much worse.

Poor Collins, 50 K is a lot!

Knew it would be 50k.
Just glad he didn't get suspended like some headlines were poking at. That would have been ridiculous.
