WideNine Posted September 14, 2019 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
Steptide Posted September 14, 2019 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

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

Just saw this fine update at the end of the other Anderson cheapshot thread... Moderators feel free to merge delete - its all good.
The Wiz Posted September 14, 2019 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
MJS Posted September 14, 2019 Posted September 14, 2019 He is a scumbag. His hit on Hauschka itself cements him in scumbag territory. 2
Chandler#81 Posted September 14, 2019 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
eball Posted September 14, 2019 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
Rock'em Sock'em Posted September 14, 2019 Posted September 14, 2019 Suspension warranted. https://www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/2019/09/jets-henry-anderson-fined-for-late-hit-on-buffalo-bills-josh-allen.html

Cruiserplayer Posted September 14, 2019 Posted September 14, 2019 Fine should be percentage of game check.

Based on the Upstate New York article, the fine is for the chest bump, not the low hit to the knee.

StHustle Posted September 14, 2019 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.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted September 14, 2019 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. Pathetic

BringBackFergy Posted September 14, 2019 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? I’ll have to research more to see who holds the most fines and is still playing. If any of you know, please advise. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/new-york-jets/henry-anderson-16819/fines/

However for him there is no guarantee he will be on roster to pay the fine and I doubt he got enough in training camp to pay it.
