All the years/times our players have been taken out by the Steelers, and nothing. It's time for us to do the taking out (even though Cooper was just fine) when the going gets tough. Some penalties I don't mind. I'd rather them come out ready to fight, vs ready to sleep like the Tampa game.

That being said, getting punched in the throat would be enough to set any one of us in here off. So while he should have kept his cool, I can totally understand why he didn't.

Agreed. It has been duly noted that 25k is the standard fare for fighting...so, there was a helmet removal and the shove....so a 10k bonus sounds about right.

As others have stated....I'm tired of our guys getting shoved around, and this higher ground bullshit. Meanwhile....we still take cheapshots. Fight fire with fire....
