Freddie's Dead Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 3 hours ago, DC Tom said: There's an official schedule of fines the NFL publishes. Mills was fined the minimum for a first-time penalty for "excessive profanity/other unsportsmanlike conduct." Kiko and Quinn were find the minimums for a first-time "striking/kicking/kneeing/face mask/late hit" (Kiko I presume for kicking, Quinn I'm not sure.) The fines were applied fairly...it's just that the rules are *****, when the fine for "excessive swearing" is less than the fine for kicking someone in the face. But #Dirty*****ingKiko is not a first-time offender. He's been fined multiple times. What, just because he kicked Josh, it resets it to a first-time kicking offense? ***** ridiculous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) 5 hours ago, DC Tom said: That's one of the reason's it's not absurd. It's objectively based on what happens, not subjectively based on an arbitrary measure of the player's failed intent. The reason it's absurd is because it weighs swearing at an official as roughly four times as bad as swearing at another player, which is still higher than kicking a player in the head. And again...Kiko was fined for kicking Allen in the head. He was fined for what actually happened, not what didn't happen but could have. Ok, let's give Kiko an absurdly low fine because, even though he had the intent to do so, he failed to destroy Josh only because of pure dumb luck. Gotcha.

Doc Brown Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 I like how Foster picked up the ball and ran it into the endzone in the middle of the melee. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nextmanup Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 This fine represents .89% of Jordan Mills' salary this year. It's the equivalent of a $445 fine for a guy making $50,000 per year. Let him pay the fine himself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFunPolice Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 QBs sliding after a semi long run when everyone is going full speed is one of the more dangerous plays in the game Totally defenseless player ripe for a head shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Red King Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 Remember, the NFL is all about player safety. I'm sure after this result that Kiko will realize it's not worth taking a similar run at QBs going forward. ...honestly, someone is going to take this chump out, and the NFL's gonna act shocked and come down hard on the person who does it, in a typically hypocritical move to deflect blame from themselves.

Actually it is the NFLPA who opposed many of the safety rules including requiring of wearing of pads. They are also defending players fined for hitting other players while they should be at minimum neutral. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
