    I agree. I like Azeez Al-Shaair but that hit was bad.

    The problem with this is that “fake slides” are a thing. Mahomes and Josh Allen are NOTORIOUS for it. So defenders are torn with giving up extra yards or a bad hit.

    This was a bad hit.

    QBs need to be aggressively penalized for fake slides and defenders will trust the slide more, hopefully stopping this kind of hit.

    Al-Shaair was rightfully ejected, but the underlying issue still exists.

    This was a bad hit.

    That’s not the reason.

    Cow muscle tissue is dense and difficult for bacteria to penetrate, with a single surface area (the outside) assuming safe handling and “edible freshness”. So cooking the outside to “rare” offers protection by cooking off surface or lightly penetrated bacteria.

    Ground beef is soft and porous, with a massive surface area, much easier for bacteria to penetrate completely.

    However, that aside, your analogy has a sound basis: more input sources = higher opportunity for corruption.
