I realize a lot of the younger fans enjoy seeing a high scoring game and long bombs down the field, but I get as much enjoyment out of the QB getting destroyed on a sack.

Firstly, thanks for spelling "ridiculous" correctly.

The real problem here is that an illegal hit on one player isn't an illegal hit on another. When a quarterback is moving around, is he running or throwing? The answer may cost you tens of thousands of dollars.
