I don't know much about american football, but that looked nasty, he intentionally rammed into him, is that allowed in football?

totally allowed. the blocker led with his shoulder into the defensive player's chest. no helmet-to-helmet contact and the defensive player was not (ahem) "defenseless" -- he was actively pursuing the ball carrier. not like a situation where the receiver is up in the air to catch a ball, or the returner is staring straight into the air to catch a punt.

of course, as the headline says, he got flagged for it anyway, because refs are no fun.
