First the Saints bounty scandal, and now the Titans. It's not a bounty system, but they have just about as much evidence that they did with the Saints. The NFL has surely stepped up on player safety, but when is the point that they should stop?The NFL is now investigating in comments made by Titans deffensive coordinater Jerry Gray. Part of what he said was "If you throw the football you better bring the gator truck". The Gator truck is the veihicle that carts injured players off of the field.
But don't all teams talk like that? They are in the moment of a pre-game speech, and they want to give the players something to get pumped up about. In my opinion, I don't think they really are aiming to seriously injure someone. Maybe a few bumps and scratches but that's what makes football, football.
At the rate the NFL is taking things, in the next few years the NFL will have turned into a complete non-contact sport, which is nothing like how the game was invented.
