WideNine Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 (edited) Looks like Jets scumbag Henry Anderson was fined $10,527 by the league. Does a fine like that for a guy making millions actually curb the behavior? Should be exponential then forfeiting games for repeat cheapshot artists. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/fines-suspensions/ Edited September 14, 2019 by WideNine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steptide Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 (edited) If they started suspending players for these hits, instead of just fining them, these hits would stop pretty quick. I know sometimes they just fall into the qb and players can't help it, but in this instance (and others) a suspension would speak alot louder than a small fine Edited September 14, 2019 by Steptide 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no "benefit of doubt" about it. But...at least it was put in front of the league that the refs missed it and agreed that it was a foul and merited a fine. So that's better than nothing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wiz Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 (edited) The question being are they fining him for the late hit that was called or the late hit to the legs that was missed? Edited September 14, 2019 by The Wiz 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJS Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 He is a scumbag. His hit on Hauschka itself cements him in scumbag territory. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandler#81 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Pittance schmittance, they busted him! That’s what’s important. It reinforces Gregggg’s methodology, sends a message to all teams about these current Jets and puts this loser on League notice. Thankfully, Josh wasn’t injured. It exposed the jests as the bush League team EVERYONE believes they are. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Fines are stupid in the NFL. Make it really hurt; suspend them a game, or a half, or whatever. Keep them off the field (and thus lose pay) because of their actions. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StHustle Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Looking at the fines I noticed Tyrel Dodson was fined $174k. Is this in ADDITION to the weekly checks he will miss? If so he wont even touch 6 figures this year after taxes. Hope he learned his lesson. If you can't handle your drinks, just stay sober. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Went beyond a cheap shot as he went way out of his way to hit Allen in the knees well after he threw the ball. 2 minutes ago, Freddie's Dead said: Based on the Upstate New York article, the fine is for the chest bump, not the low hit to the knee.

BringBackFergy Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Two fines in his career and he’s a scumbag? Wow. Maybe it’s because those two fines concern Bills players?

The fact is, ANY amount of fine would have been a percentage of his game check, thereby meeting your criteria. I think your issue is, you wanted the percentage to be HIGHER than the percentage he was actually fined. What's the actual percentage that you think is proper?

So essentially Anderson would be out of pocket $5,263, if he donates. Love that the money goes to a charity but cutting the amount in half isn’t going to hurt a player.

hemma Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Allen just got back and played ball. Brady would have hammed it up for 5 minutes like a soccer player. Probably would have gotten a call + the max possible fine. Allen needs some acting lessons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Livinginthepast Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Once again the jokers at league office don't connect the dots from a repeat offender Anderson to a repeat offender coach Williams to the incident itself and come up with a fine that would be parking ticket for the average person.
