machine gun kelly Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 (edited) I disagree. Lamar didn’t flip into a defensive player and get in his face. Every team was shown videos this summer basically Levi’s denied hand move is fine, just not over the WR. They knew. Levi was stupid for not jumping up in a quarter turn in any direction beside standing over looking down at the WR, and never would’ve been called. Past NFL officials have been on radio shows all week stating the point of emphasis and they cited Levi’s move which is benign. You just can’t stand over the receiver looking down at him doing it. some may not like it but they were told. Just like Josh was told he can spin the ball in the end zone, but can’t be facing the defensive player. I knew it was getting called as he was doing it. I was at a bills backers bar, and I’m yelling no Levi. I understand football is emotional. I played and coached, but if I’m shown video of what not to do, I’m not doing anything to hurt my team.

SoCal Deek Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 (edited) How in the world is signaling that the pass is incomplete taunting, when your actual job is to make sure the pass is incomplete??? Is it taunting when the pass receiver signals that he CAUGHT the pass? Is it taunting when the running back signals that he was down before fumbling? Nope! It’s their freaking job! It’s NOT personal against the other player! Edited September 25, 2021 by SoCal Deek 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl2526 Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 I'm OK with making taunting an unsportsmanlike penalty if they want. I think a fine is a bit much. Maybe if a player engages in such behavior regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJS Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 You should get suspended a game for spitting at someone. That's as disrespectful and unsportsmanlike as it gets. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsbackto81 Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 (edited) Man that's rough. If you have to fine a player why can't it be a certain percentage of their game check instead of a fixed rate for the infraction. 5k plus on Levi Wallace is painful for someone making 1 mil per. If you'd fine Jalen Ramsey 5k he'd probably laugh it off. Seems like the right call by rule. Edited September 25, 2021 by billsbackto81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

machine gun kelly Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Again guys, it’s not yelling waving denied. It’s jumping up staring down at him and making the gesture. They warned everyone including the fans they were going to do this and they are making a point. Like it or not he knew this summer and all he had to do is jump up turn fast hypothetically to his bench and yell out “denied”. Legal. Stand over and looking down at him yelling the same thing, illegal. I heard this stuff from the Perriera and other last officials all summer warning they were going to do it. The Lamar comment I assume is a joke as the NFL encourages those celebrations. The whole point is don’t be right at you’re opponent when you do it. It’s not changing so no reason to be upset over it. Theme the enforced rules now. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevestojan Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 (edited) The rule is stupid. No argument there. But, the league warned everyone they were going to be very strict in this. It’s a bone head move by Wallace. Again, Yes, it’s football, and they should be able to talk trash. But the league promised they’d crack down so how someone can still decide to do something like that is beyond me.

Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 This was a good call. I'm not sure it deserves a fine, but it was a good call. It was taunting. You're definitely allowed to show emotion; you just can't throw it in a guy's face disrespectfully. To be honest, I'm not sure why it's so hard for people to understand this. 3 hours ago, SoCal Deek said: How in the world is signaling that the pass is incomplete taunting, when your actual job is to make sure the pass is incomplete???

Saying it’s not fair or what about when this guy does that will do nothing. Where the side of not liking it I wholeheartedly agree is a fine is a bit excessive. Maybe something minor I guess so the layer feels some pain, but $9k is a bit. You’d think him losing his team 15 yards and getting a lashing from McD would be enough. McD is a high character guy so it’s good he never seems to do this on the sideline, but I bet players at times get called into the principal’s office privately as all people should be managed. Allow Levi to maintain his dignity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Punching Bag Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 It reminds me of Stevie Johnson's bone headed T-shirt action - he knew it was wrong, he was going to be fined and did it anyways. There was no purpose other than "Look at Me". It is not like when a play takes a cheap shot on a player because that player got away with it in front of the zebras who was supposed to be even handed/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Lamar’s was too and probably worse. That sort of show boating is intended to be a slap in the face to the opponent. You don’t have to stare down a guy for there to be a taunt. The worst is Tyreek Hill. Some defender needs to just drive him into the wall the next time he does one of his show boating back flips, etc into the endzone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
