That's pretty hard to watch. However, they are highly compensated and are well aware of the risk associated with their job. I assure you, not one NFL player will quit because of what happened to Knox.

whose saying it should be more violent though?

People are just complaining that refs don't know how to flag personal foul plays properly and that qbs are getting over-protected due to brady's injury.

Knox was falling down to the ground.

No idea why that guy drilled him like he did.

Some of those mo fo's playing are just straight up crazy with not much common sense.......uhhhhhhh James Harrison anyone?

Seriously, Harrison seems borderline crazy to me. Between him and Ray Lewis, I'm surprised anyone they hit make it through the game healthy.

These guys are overly paid to participate in a game that they chose. Injuries happen.

I'm surprised this does not happen often on "sandwich" plays, you even see players trying to break a player in half while the other one is holding him.

What is he supposed to do, stand and watch a fumbled ball bounce around? Knox is going after the ball, so is the Seahawks defender: Of corse he's trying to keep Knox from securing the bouncing ball...

Compared to the revenue they generate? You really can't be that clueless, can you?

Sounds like a below average feeling for sure

Next time I strain my index finger pulling some weeds from a customer's flower beds I will not complain about my lot in life
