Why?

Exactly. For the love of God, it's still football. It looked vicious, but Thomas was running full speed to block somebody. It just so happened he ended up getting a shot on a guy who wasn't fully prepared for it. I'm glad the guys not injured, but the block took place within the framework of the play. It wasn't the type of completely unnecessary block that takes place away from the ball.

The guy saw stars. Payback for Landry on Williams.

Yeah. Neither guy that was hit in the play had their head up and the plays were completely legal.

Great hit. No leading with head or shoulder. Clean with the arm and body and BOOM!! Love it. Old school football. 

This is all I could think of then I saw this!

Right. He hit him shoulder to shoulder. He didn't lower his head and lead with the crown, he didn't hit head to head (or target the head), he didn't go low at his knees, and there was nothing at all to suggest he tried, in any way, to intentionally injure the guy. That's football.

He was ko'ed, knocked right into the concussion protocol and didn't return to the game...I'd count that as injured.  Loved the hit though!!!
