Still don't think it was a penalty, but I knew they'd call it.

It didn't look like he grabbed the back of the jersey at the neck area which is usually what it takes for a horse collar.

Questions:

What was the fine for the Commander who tried to play twist off top with Butterfly Beasley's head?

If Church gets 16K for a take-down, how is it Suh only got fined 70 K? His cleats could have ripped an Achilles and ended the guy's season, and maybe his career.

Exactly, did that face mask guy get fined at all?

He didn't, but the way Jackson went down made it appear that he did, and he did fall on the receiver's legs.

I thought it was an obvious penalty after watching the replay. That play is exactly why they started calling it in the first place. You pull a guy backwards like that and land on his legs and it's just an injury waiting to happen.
