LB Damien Wilson fined by NFL for hit on Kirk Cousins

[CCBoy]

Think a fine will be issued for last week's hit on Dak Prescott?

There needs to be more transparency in the leagues decsion.

• Who makes the decision. Is it a panel or one individual
• Is there a fine chart i.e. First penalty or punishment is x dollars and second one is 2x ect
• Does the NFLPA represent the players on these issues.

For a multi billion dollar organization, you would think there would be clear rules,guidelines, and fine schedules

Who signs a Union Contract with nothing is defined as in violation. Only the punishers own sense of propriety. Why have a Union, when a high priced lawyer could negotiate a pay scale sufficient for his client's contribution.

More reason to hate the NFL.

it was helmet to helmet on Dak
yes, he was deemed a runner, but you still can't lead with the crown of your helmet

Against a runner, you can.

Against a runner, you can.

Not when he's on the ground.

Goodell- “So you want to get in the way of my contract”?

Can Wilson appeal this, I think he can. He should.

Appeal to be heard by Henderson........

Baaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaassa

I feel the conspiracy is ramping up. Between the non holding calls, the higher fines, the changing of language in suspension letters, etc, we may be a marked team.

You just now noticing this?

It’s been widely reported Jerry is the one holding up Goddell’s new contract. You think that Goddell’s going to let that chit slide? Expect payback, starting with the officiating tomorrow. I guarantee there will not be a single hold call against the Chiefs all game.

Its ridiculous that a defensive player can't hit a QB any more. Where did this twisted thinking come from. Roughing the passer ??...what a joke, that's a defensive players job.

Thanks. Great, clean hit...just not hard enough. How on earth was that dirty or roughing the QB. ***** league.

Been asking this question since I heard about it. I can see it being late watching it in slow motion, but it is the contact from behind that moves him down to where helmet contact each other. It surely wasn't intentional.

In fact, that was the guts of my next post. The LB doesn't have the benefit of slow motion working for him..he is running flat out ...lines the queer QB up and suddenly the QB ducks right into contact and its the defensive players fault. I mean come on. That was a good hit.

Kiko Alonso got a $9115 fine... how does that make sense?
