WATCH: Texans Antonio Smith Whacks Dolphins Richie Incognito in the Head With His Own Helmet

I like guys that are passionate about the game, but there is such a thing as taking it too far. Taking off another player's helmet and whacking him with it? Yeah, I think it is pretty safe to say that one is crossing the line.

During Saturday's preseason contest between the Miami Dolphins and Houston Texans a little spat between rivals had what could have been a real ugly ending--and there was no flag thrown!

Dolphins offensive lineman Richie Incognito--a guy many have accused of playing dirty in the past--was going up against Texans defensive lineman Antonio Smith. As the play nears its end Smith takes of Incognito's helmet and whacks him with it.



Jay Glazer led off Monday's FOX Football Daily talking about an AFC team that could lose a major player to a suspension and that they had video evidence. Denver's Von Miller has been in the news so I know I assumed it had something to do with him--which it obviously does not.

A suspension has to be coming. Had Smith actually connected with Incognito's face that could have taken a real ugly turn. Luckily he saw it coming and took the brunt of it on his chest and shoulder.

  2. Can't argue with you there man. I don't care how much of a cheat incognito may or may not be. This is just bad.
