The physics of football, like hockey, require heads to be off-limits. I agree that getting hit in the head is the risk you take playing football, just as it is in hockey. But I think it should not be a premediated head hunting. It’s only a game and a reflection of the society in which it exists.

exactly, it is not a big deal. That is the point. So many media outlet’s and general public were appalled when they heard the Greg williams audio stating this. It’s a figure of speech and nothing more.

Also, for all those saying Williams said “take out Davis’ ACL” He did not say this. He said “test the ACL”. every team takes notice of injuries on other teams and always will. [e.g. test his left side (ACL side), and see if he can use it]

Are you really that naive that you cant see past all the hypocrisy in this?

How else do you get the point across to meat-heads with generally low intelligence levels?

You paint meat-head words in big letters everywhere they turn! Pretty smart thinking by the chiefs …

Gregg Williams was such an arrogant idiot he actually assumed they were listening.

#1: did league tell KC to stop.

A. If yes, fry them

B. if no. Don’t do that $@#! again.

Let’s move on.

But it’s accurate if you kill the head the body will absolutely die.

___________

are you sure it wasn’t
“kill the wife and the insurance money is yours”?

damn…I’ll never get it straight…

He did, and we all heard it:

- Go after Vernon Davis’ ACL; does it get much clearer than this?

- Kill Frank Gore’s head; not “kill the head”, “we need to kill Frank Gore’s head”…in my mind that’s pretty clear

But the point remains that there is more going on behind closed doors than some people would be comfortable with on every NFL team. But there is at your local restaurant too. And your local hospital. And at a rock concert too. The question is at what point is what is going on behind closed doors too much of a liability for the general public health or good. We haven’t put a stop to drug binging in the dressing room by rock stars, because it does not effect the general public in this way. Now in the restaurant and hospital, there are random inspection and other things to help keep under control what happens behind closed doors. So I’m not sure if this Kill the Head poster crosses that line or not. Was it motivational and figurative, meaning “pressure and hit the QB, get him flustered and the whole offense crumbles. Or does it mean it literally, like, “get out there and hunt some heads!”

No? So you mean this post was just another in an infinite string of baiting posts for Saints fans to pretend their team did nothing wrong? Like 90% of the other posts on this site these days?

Gregg Williams had a bounty system in New Orleans where he preached “Kill the Head”.

Tim Krumrie coached in KC, where they preached “Kill the Head”.

1 + 1 = 2

It is not the phrase that was the problem. It is easily argued that it is a figure of speech that translates to destroying a player’s will to perform. The problem with the Saints stuff is that he/they took it too far. Williams spoke of specific players and injuries. “Make sure we kill Frank Gore’s head,” is not an issue. “We need to decide whether Crabtree wants to be a fake (expletive) prima donna, or he wants to be a tough guy. … He’s human when we (expletive) take out that outside ACL” is a BIG issue. There were other statements like that. The generalizations like the one in the pic happen all over the league but the targeting of specific injuries/players is hopefully something that has been squashed by Goodell’s harshness in “bountygate”.

Who are the 15 people who dislike this to the 12 who do? This point is spot on. Please those out there who disliked it, explain? I’m assuming it’s all bitter Saints fans.
