I was just reacting to the part about missing the number of games as the number on the victim's jersey
I think that was funny but over the top. You make some cogent points.

I have to agree with the game commentators regarding targeting

It should simply be a 15 yard penalty. No disqualifications.

How about 15 yards and 1 point is awarded to the opposing team?

Used to be a 5 yard “incidental” version and 15-yard version for grabbing and pulling or twisting with it. That works

If you got rid of the facemask rule players would intentional try to grab it...

Is us worth 20 yards to a team to take out a player on the other team?

Dirty teams bent on taking out another player aren't going to do it via the act of targeting

The point of having it be a disqualification is to prevent players from doing it

Make it 25 yards, with no 1/2 the distance to the goal crap, and I’m on board

So if it the ball is inside the 25 yard line the penalty phase is a TD is awarded?

Yes. That’s my preference. But if not that, then the 2 yard line.
