Here are some of the comments of posters on that site:

This is a vicious and unwarranted attack on Higgins. Wide Receivers are paid millions of dollars to 1) effectively catch passes and 2) avoid getting tackled to gain extra yardage. Neither Higgins nor Hamlin are "big" players by NFL standards. It was a very typical catch and tackle play and there was nothing questionable about Higgins trying to get another yard out of the reception.


Something nobody is talking about, how does Higgins feel. You think he slept well knowing he may have killed someone on the field? To blame him is not only a cheap shot but it’s a disgrace.



"He didn’t expect Tee Higgins to launch his body back into him." Come on, he's a safety playing pro football. He has made that tackle many times. Don't put the blame on Higgins.



So now we blame the receiver for this, really! Give us a break. We all wish and hope for the best outcome and Hamlin to fully recover and return to playing but this has nothing to do with the receiver.



Bart Scott trying to make a career off of this tragedy. I never heard of him but looked him up and he is a former NFL linebacker which makes this even more despicable. He knows better. This is an attempt to get his name out there for a bigger contract. The NFL players should band together and make sure they never give Scott and interview or appear on his show for this!
