i think the argument is that the hard helmets and shouderpads have ingrained deliberately harder hits and leading with the head in NFL when compared to say Union or AFL. League is questionable.

the NFL have seemingly very strongly come down on head-to-head contact and leading with the head in recent years as the CTE situation has been uncovered further, but i'm not sure that there's been significant advancements in the protective gear
