Am I by myself in thinking that the Saints kind of tried to knock Harvin out of the game (and not in a clean way)? I could be way off base here, but from the first hit I felt they were trying to hurt him.

That first hit, although a obvious penalty now, would not of been a flag 3-4 years ago. They def wanted to set the tone to the WR group as a whole, but to say they were deliberatly trying to hurt him didn't seem to be the case. I would take a 15 yard penalty early in the game all the time to set that tone. I just don't think that was the right place for it, 3rd down on a ball he was dropping already...
No as someone stated they wanted to send a message early that it would not be as easy as the first matchup. Bush basically had nowhere to hit Harvin. If he really was targeting Harvin, he would have led with his helmet instead of his shoulder.....It's just football man. Things like that will happen especially to WR/TE
