Agreed - WTF. And Suggs didn't get fined?? What were they looking at?

Doesn't make sense. It was roughing (according to the rules) but I didn't see intent from him or Wright. Suggs was the one with the dirty play.

Good Grief, this is so STUPID! Both guys were just trying to make a play. The penalty was punishment enough. This is starting to border on idiocy, which of course is no surprise, given who is running the show in NFL HQ.

I agree. However, given that Wright's and Ngata's hits were almost identical, it's even more stupid to fine one and not the other. So I interpret the Ngata fine as the NFL decided to fine both blows to the head (even though they were pretty incidental and not intentional).

Not fining Suggs is a direct result of all the whining by the Ravens. It sends a very bad message. The league should have made it clear that any attempt to go after a QBs knees won't be tolerated. Period.

If I am a qb and I see a defensive player reach out for the top of my jersey, I lower my head so he has to hit my facemask. Automatic 15 right?

Are they trying to fuel the media propaganda that Tom is making the league flag football?
