Fighting doesn't happen in football much because it is not an effective way to police anything or even get in a cheap shot. The helmets and gear just make it impractical. The fact is, most of the players out there are not going to touch the ball much or at all, they are basically already fighting each other every snap, and if you want to police something/get at someone, it's easy enough to do so before they blow the whistle.

Why break your hand trying to punch someone in a helmet when you could cut block them a few plays from now.
