1. It makes sense after the 5 yard line
You don't want defenders jamming receivers down field however that Hester call was right on the 5 yard mark. However, the way this hitting a defenseless receiver rule is being called is too much. I can understand a straight helmet to helmet shot but anything around the shoulder area is being called. How do you force a receiver to drop it by changing how these safeties played all their life?

However Packers just scored.

2. Cutler has 4 interceptions
:bounce:

Collinsworth keeps blaming the receivers for Cutler's failure.

5. This former free safety couldn't agree more strongly.
