This. This is exactly what I was going to post. Now that the league is cracking down on cheap shots and spearing, they ain't shit. I've raised that point a time or two on various threads. This is exactly the bottom line. No one fears them because they can't cheap shot folks and get away with it anymore. It's obvious their demise coincided with the crack down on helmet to helmet hits. No more "keeping your head on a swivel".
