Helmet comes off during a tackle, due to prior foul?

Admittedly, this was a pretty obvious foul and I hope that one of us would get a flag on this, but we can't assume that will happen.

That's why I said "for the purposes of buying." On the field, this must be treated as an IW -- I'm not arguing against that.

Ok, I just wanted to clarify your thinking. Even if I was wrong, I don't mind buying once in a while (Except for IW plays, I hate those, especially when they're mine !!!)
