I'd like to see him fined for the intentional forearm to Freddie's head.

 

Hear hear. That was a ridiculously late hit, right at the head. Yes, probably hurt him more than it hurt FredEx, but he was still going right for the head. Total BS.

i love how the announcer (buerline) tried to defend it at first, and then he saw the replay and was dumbfounded.

 

Announcers are programmed to decry plays that are flagged, and to defend those that are not. It is part of the NFL's general desire to avoid focusing on erratic officiating. That is what made the criticism of the replacement refs so unusual.

+1 for knowing the proper use of "hear hear"

Thats complete SHEEET!!!! How does the NFL miss this type of stuff, also did the Buffalo Bills management make sure to get the NFL to act on this incident. Im not a little B, but if we cant handle it like men after the game and scrap, then someones pockets got to get hurt. This also happens after Freddie just got back from a concussion??? Complete BS

Reminder: the nfl doesn't release the fines. It may have been and it just wasn't leaked/reported on.

The NFL releases the fines every week. ESPN has them on there web site. Funny thou that only a few are in the paper. So if your a no body and you get kicked in the head it's not a big deal. Still get fined thou. It's all about the money honey.

 

If so, it's a new-ish policy, for years it was mostly leaked by players, agents, teams, heck even the nfl.... But it wasn't a press release of any sort. We'd get most, if not all, but it wouldn't be promised that nothing else was handed out.
