I thought I heard this afternoon that Wright was fined for his hit on Flacco. Anyone else hear that?

Can't really say I'm shocked. Pollard wasn't fined last year either. A great job as always, Goodell.

According to this Twitter entry from Shalise Manza Young, Wright was fined $5K.

Like officiating, I realize the league is never going to be perfect with stuff like this, but at least try to be consistent. If two players (Wright and Ngata) commit the same penalty in the same game and their actions were comparable, don't fine one and not the other. That just doesn't make sense.

As far as Suggs not being fined, that doesn't make sense, either. The league emphasized the "no hitting the QB in the knees" rule this year, he violated it and was flagged for it. Under similar circumstances, Wilfork was fined earlier this season. I'd love to hear the explanation on why Suggs wasn't fined.

Suggs should be fined, it was full of intent to injure.

I hate to say this, but the Patriots will be getting the short end of the stick on this stuff for a long time. It's not right. It's not fair, but that's life in Goodell's post-"Spygate" double-standard NFL.

Baltimore talk shows lit up yesterday (actually all week) about the "no fines for Ravens" report. The Ravens and the fans felt vindicated that they did nothing wrong on Sunday, and that the flags were egregious against the Ravens. Thought I was going to puke, i had to turn on OMG, the news station.....
