Patriots' Green-Ellis fined $5,000 | National Football Post

That one where he didn't realize the defender was touched by a lineman?

WTF? Why the f*** is the NFL doing this? Its an illegal play for sure, but thats WHY they call a 15 yard penalty during the game. Stop stealing money NFL.

Whats Next? 5K for holding? 10K for offsides? 15 K for kicking the ball OB on a kickoff and you hurt a camera man?

Growup goodell this isn't the MLS

Is the only thing that made the block illegal the fact that the defender was touched by a lineman? If so this is total BS. IIRC the defender was barely touched by the lineman and not engaged.

Stupid fine. I don't know BJGE's contract, but I expect this fine actually matters to him unlike it being pocket change to many other players.

No, that's the one where he went low on the defender and Matt Light switched to block the same defender while BJGE was going on..

Personally, it's absolute BS to fine a player for that situation.

Correct.

There was no way BJGE would know Light was going to shift because it was happening behind him.

Looking forward to the times where they hand out fines for a holding or pass interference call.

Nope,Offsides is the next penalty to be fined by Goodell and the League

A 3 game suspension and a $15,000 fine for jumping up early out of stance and putting your palm on a defenders jersey
