Default Sanders hit on Ward

Has anybody heard if Sanders is going to be fined/ suspended for the hit on Hines Ward? It looked like the helmet to helmet was incidental to me but I'm sure all the Hines Ward ballwashers in the league are dissecting the hit. Collinsworth the d-bag was all over that one.

I can imagine the Commish is licking his chops.

It usually takes a few days at least for that information to come out. But, knowing Baddell, a fine in impending even though the contact was clearly incidental. Meanwhile, Harrison taking a shot at Brady's knee will be thoroughly ignored.

When I saw the replay it looked like Ward's helmet hit Sander's facemask.

It sure looked like Ward's helmet hit Sanders in the chest and that any contact of Sanders helmet to Ward's was after the hit occurred.

I was surprised there was no penalty given the current environment.

Collinsworth could've defused the situation like Phil Simms did on an almost identical hit in the Indy-Philly game, but chose to suggest that it was an illegal hit.

He better be fined!

You need to watch the hit again...

NFL Game Center: New England Patriots at Pittsburgh Steelers - 2010 Week 10

@ 21 seconds. Anyway, the contact was incidental. There certainly doesn't appear to be any malice there.

It was a helmet-to-helmet hit on a play where the ball was ruled incomplete because the act of catching hadn't been finished.



Sanders should expect a fine similar to what Pryor got.
