I'm agreeing with you in all counts. It's football, even good hits get people hurt. I also don't think the defender was trying to hurt the QB in that play. It's just how it ended up and the league is definitely trying to make it safer and cracking down.
The retaliation, to me, should have been an ejection as well. Play was stopped and he was defenseless. Those shots to the back can seriously hurt or end careers. Could have giving him whiplash.
It may make you happy to learn that the player that retaliated WAS ejected, as well as another Jags player who shoved him.

IMO it isn't all about whether you have an explicit intent to hurt someone, rather it's about using the wrong technique in a situation where you know that someone could get hurt. The defender gets paid a LOT of money to be one of the best at this sport, so there is a reasonable expectation that they will make every attempt to preserve their coworkers' safety.
