Every week there is a list of players who are fined by the NFL, many times for calls that were missed during the game. It's an NFL thing because they have to clean up their reputation when it comes to player safety. They just paid out almost a billion dollars to ex players, with many more suits to follow.
As the league should! The players playing the game is what earns the suits their income.
You believe what you want and I will believe what is closer to fact.
If that's a Bengal defender that helmet to helmet ear holes one of the league's premier QB's, in prime time, on national television, during the leagues season opening marquee game; he gets a big fat personal foul or fine at the very least.
The NFL had the supreme venue and opportunity to showcase the fact that those kind of hits are "now unacceptable" just last night and the kid got off without even receiving a penalty.
Way to go NFL!! Way to show us how much you really care about player safety.
