Like...in the moment. In the speed of the game. You are close the QB. You are being shoved by the offensive lineman, there are guys falling all over themselves. 

There are times when you just don't have control of where you are in relation to the QB. You're running at top speed and you just collide with the QB in any way that you can.

Now, there are things that you should not do when trying to reach the QB. Don't lead with your helmet, don't grab at the facemask. Don't bury them into the ground. and Don't try to rip their legs off.

But just hitting 5 inches higher than the NFL feels like you should have...Like, come on. That's an extremely hard standard to hit. You could tell there was nothing malicious about how Lawson tackled the QB. It was literally just "this is the contortion my body was in in order to get around this 320 lb man. And Now I just need to get that guy to not throw the ball."

Having played the game or not makes no difference. There are those who see the referees call the rules as written, and those who make excuses. If a pitcher is trying to brush back a batter who is crowding the plate, and the batter steps into the pitch and gets hit, the batter takes a base, whether the pitcher actually meant to hit him or not. Contact with the head/neck area of a Quarterback is getting called, regardless of intent. It's just the way it is....
