I said this last night, but the NFL needs to start looking at soccer rules regarding red cards to implement in the game.
For any flagrant hit to the head like Burfict on Brown in that playoff game, Juju on Burfict, and Illoka on Brown, it should be an immediate ejection with a mandatory minimum 1 game suspension the following game, even if it is the next season.
The same should go for any other flagrant illegal hit as well, like Gronkowski's yesterday. And those ejections can be from reviews from the booth as well.
If the NFL is actually serious about player safety, they need to make the consequences of these kind of hits more severe for during the game and after.
