I've already posted the rules directly from NFL. If you chose not to read or understand them, well, there's nothing I can do to change that. Have a lovely weekend. I'm out.

That hit has NOTHING to do with DEFENSELESS players.
I'll repeat myself for your sake....
From the pdf and already pointed out to you
(g) If a player uses any part of his helmet (including the top/crown and forehead/”hairline” parts) or
facemask to butt, spear, or ram an opponent violently or unnecessarily.
Does not matter if defenseless player or not. You are not allowed to use your helmet as a weapon and yes that includes hitting another player in the head (helmet to helmet)
Once again, you keep trying to prove that he wasn't a defenseless player, which I agree with...and I think the other people agree with too.
I'm saying that he's protected from that kind of helmet to helmet attack at all times...defenseless or not.

Why do you keep deflecting from the hit on McCoy? That is what we are discussing.
legal
from an article
see when you are classified as a runner, which I am saying MCcoy is, then Helmet to Helmets are legal in some instances...
Im not at all....you guys said ALL helmet to helmet hits are illegal, which isnt the case....I have said many times that a runner is allowed to be hit helmet to helmet which is the case here..where have I deflected?
Was it ruled legal, or just wrapped up in the 75k fine he got for hitting Massaquoi in the same game?
He didn't even put his hands out in front of him there either to make a tackle. He just ran headfirst in Cribbs. THAT is not how you play football. THAT is how you get called a dirty player.
The guy just tries to take out other players.
I remember in a preseason game when he went after Kyle Orton like that, and Kyle was going down. Harrison came in a speared him headfirst. For what purpose????
Well this 'guy' did not say that at all. I said there can be incidental contact (remember what I said about pad level?), but this hit does not qualify as incidental contact.
Sandra
so do I get roses sent to me as an apology, or if I am wrong do you prefer chocolates?
What apology? Harrison is a dirty player whatever the NFL rules.
Let's see what the NFL says about the McKoy hit. While you're discussing the Cribbs hit, we're discussing the McKoy hit.
