Because hurt bodies are fine.  Hurt feelings...

You always seem to be hurting for money.  Why don't you start fining some posters for unsportsmanlike writing?  😇

Seems like it. I thought Derwin James would get cited for body slamming Travis Kelce. Though that game was a week after ours so there is still time.

I don't understand why the NFL makes a big deal out of this stuff. It's stupid. They're treating grown men like kids. "Be nice to that guy after you burn him for a TD, don't talk sh*t to him. We'll fine you if you do". How dumb

No Fun League

Money well spent for Diggs. And a flag would of been non consequential for the games outcome

[Bookie Man]

Goodell be like

So Diggs was fined twice as much for taunting as the guy that horse collared Knox ? ... That makes a lot of sense.

I get policing the game so the optics don’t look bad to children (never mind that athletes aren’t role models), but players should only be fined if it’s an egregious display of taunting (props/sexual/over the top acts). The players should be allowed to trash talk, it’s a grown men’s league.

So a horse collar known as a dirty tackling formed the injures players receives less of a fine then taunting and one of them was actually flagged in the game

Money well spent

Hopefully the money goes to a good cause….

#Rams LB Justin Hollins was fined $5,361 for a horse collar tackle on #Bills TE Dawson Knox in the same game.

Good. That was the most dangerous play of the game. I thought Knox's knee was going to pop.

Shoul have been $15k minimum

I think I may be the ah here for not minding the fine on #14, as long as a penalty wasn't called in the game.

$10,609 for taunting and $5,361 for horse collar tackle 

 

Horse collar tackles and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me,  

but the words you pay double more you see

I actually really like this. This is how these taunting infractions should be handled—  after-game fines, as opposed to on-field penalties.

I thought Ramsey came in hot after getting toasted, and possibly was going for head shot.  Diggs immediately gestured towards his head.  I figured either Diggs was saying “that was cheap shot going after my head, Toast” or he was saying “use your head dummy.  I just outsmarted you”

Makes complete sense... taunting - this risk of hurting someones feelings 10k fine.  Horse collar - the risk of ruining someones career/life - 5k fine.  Good ole NFL logic.
