We all know that the NFL is "concerned" about player safety. Yet the past few seasons have shown otherwise. This is especially prevalent in regards to helmet to helmet hits (targeting). Many seem to go uncalled and fines seem to do very little to curb it.
Does anyone else think they should follow the NCAA's lead in how they deal with targeting calls?

Replay officials are likely to have more power when it comes to calling targeting penalties in college football next season.
The NCAA football rules committee proposed giving replay officials more authority to overturn incorrect targeting fouls and to call targeting penalties when they are missed on the field. The committee also agreed to allow conferences to experiment with NFL-style centralized video replay review systems in 2016.
The rules committee completed four days of meetings in Orlando, Florida, on Thursday and announced several proposals that could be implemented next season if approved by the playing rules oversight panel on March 8.
