Alonso’s hit on Flacco

[BmorePat87]

I turned the game off after the 1st quarter because I had some stuff I had to do, so I first saw the hit on facebook. Based on the initial video, I figured it was just bang-bang. After watching the highlights, Flacco was sliding before Alonzo went low. He went low and to the head in reaction to the slide.

I can't fault him for some contact, it was going to happen and that's fine, but he seemed to go for the big hit after seeing Flacco slide.


And, hey, you knock out the QB and only give up half the distance to the goal. Pretty good trade off.
