Quinton Coples gets penalty for decapitating Donald Brown (Video)
Quinton Coples received an unnecessary roughness penalty on Sunday for his huge hit on Donald Brown during the second quarter of the Jets-Chargers game.
The Chargers had a first-and-10 from the 15 and handed off to Brown, who was immediately taken out by a clothesline from Coples. Coples came around the edge and made a brilliant play, but the refs saw a helmet come off and threw the flag.
The Chargers got 10 yards from the spot of the foul and ended up scoring a touchdown on the drive to go up 14-0. I say the hit was worth it.
Brown immediately grabbed his head after the hit and exited the game for the bench.
