Totally worth it.

Totally agree.. I don;t want this to start looking at soccer.. they need to add booth review and take off time or downs from teams that do this.. very unprofessional

Probably wouldn’t have been a fine if Romo wasn’t making a huge deal about it on national tv. I like Romo but was telling him to stfu!

Remember years ago I think the Giants had two players drop. Was a semi- big deal then. I think it was Warren Sapp was on NFL Network and saying it happens all the time. Guys do it to slow down the other team, but there is supposed to be only one guy allowed to fall.
He did it. The NFL doesn't need "proof." It is a football league, not a court of law. Even the appeal process is full of people who played and know it happens. Check will be cut.

Can you get a cramp just from standing?
I obviously wouldn't know.....................
Lol
Yeah, they can creep up on you, but you could see he just looked to the sideline and fell down intentionally.
Smart but low, if we were playing in another team's stadium there would be big time booing as there should be...
Still, like Murdock said, they scored on the play anyway so there should be no bitching...
But we all know, Chiefs fans love to *****.

I think they sent a memo literally the week before saying they were going to start cracking down on it and fining people.

Bates soccer-style collapse was very embarrassing to see as a Bengals fan. And on a major broadcast viewed by millions.
I also couldn't figure out what Chase was trying to demonstrate when he was earning his taunting penalty. But it's the kind of disrespectful thing that viewers remember. And I wish I could forget Chase's giving the middle figure to a DB who he let get under his skin. I know he's young, and only his second year in the league, but those things don't help his marketability. And neither taunting penalties that I've seen from him were at opportune times.
The rest of the team, including Burrow and Taylor, give off a good image when the camera shows them on the sidelines. I personally cannot stand those coaches who blow up on the sidelines numerous times during a game.

I remember him holding the wrong leg or something when talking about the other leg.

I did however like Taylor screaming at Chase for his dumb gesture causing penalty.
Chase is one hell of a player but is still very young and needs to mature professionally in this area.

Was on Facebook and the story about Bate's fine is postwd several times. Good Lord the Chiefs fans are a whiny bunch. They actually are crying the league should take the win away from the Bengals. I guess that's the only way they could beat us.

Jesse didn't exactly help his own case in seeking that huge, high dollar contract..
RE: Bates, Taylor, And Team Fined For Faking Injury - CJD - 12-11-2022
There was 3:20 left in the half and the Bengals had all three timeouts. I get wanting to preserve time outs for that final drive before the half, but I bet they take the timeout if they knew it would cost them, collectively, 500k. I wonder if that 350k comes out of Zac or Bates' contract in some way.

The taunting penalty was towards Eric Reid who was talking trash in the week prior (and the week after). Chase admitted it was a bad idea, but he was just caught up in the moment. It didn't really matter either. It cost us a total of 5 yards on the following kick off return.
And the double bird was just classic. You can tell Chase has really embraced the FTS culture here in Cincinnati.

Asked Jessie Bates if he'll appeal his $50,000 fine.
— Jay Morrison (@JayMorrisonATH) December 11, 2022
"For sure. I think Katie and them are gonna appeal it for all of us."
I said, maybe Zac will pay it for you.
"I don't think he'll do that. But hopefully it cuts down to $5,000, kind of make an example of us and move on."

I don't buy a single word of "it was an obvious fake" or that this in any way related to soccer, or that this impacted the game in any way.
1) Can't prove he did or didn't have a cramp, which do come on out of nowhere at times and can end suddenly as well (we've ALL had that happen whether it's a charlie horse in bed or a cramp on the sports field)
2) How can it be proven that Bates had any idea of the player count so did this to stop the clock (unless there's an obvious sideline signal)
3) Soccer is about the flop to make it look like someone did something; this was Bates all by himself
4) The Chiefs scored so it didn't change the outcome of the game at all
It looked stupid as hell, and the NFL clearly wants to set a standard of some kind so they have a precedent when they call this in a future meaningful game. But I really think this one is ridiculous.
RE: Bates, Taylor, And Team Fined For Faking Injury - pally - 12-12-2022
Also of note, the umpire appeared to be running in to stop the snap and allow the subs, unaware Bates had gone down.
— Jay Morrison (@JayMorrisonATH) December 12, 2022
It was first and goal at the 1, and the Chiefs scored two plays later, so not much advantage was gained. All of which I assume will be part of the appeal.
