Who Jacked Up TJ?

ESPN football analyst Tom Jackson does a "Jacked Up" segment. What I don't understand is why he doesn't show the best hits of the weekend in said segment. When he started it a couple years ago, the hits seemed like the most violent and vicious of the weekend. Now ... ehhhh, they're ok. Is this league directed? It seems like the league is trying to minimize the really big hits, especially to QB's and WR's. Maybe they didn't want the most brutal plays of the week displayed on the NFL's flagship broadcast, Monday Night Football. You can't have it both ways. I can't play IM sports. I either have to play just for fun or really competitively, I can't dim the switch. You can't dumb down "Jacked Up" and make it worthwhile, either.
