Freddie's Dead Posted January 6, 2019 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

Peter Posted January 6, 2019 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. Edited January 6, 2019 by Peter
Augie Posted January 6, 2019 Posted January 6, 2019 I just wonder what we didn’t see. There has to be something, or this is ridiculous. Regardless, probably Mills best showing of the year.

Doc Brown Posted January 6, 2019 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
Nextmanup Posted January 6, 2019 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!

One thing that isnt talked about is the initial tackler seems to be holding Allen up for the hit....or is that just me?
