Was Trent Cole actually roughing the passer or did it just look that way? It’s hard to tell anymore since the grey area of enforcement is so fluid.

Fire Goodell.

I was thinking Rolando McClain would get fined for putting Darren Sproles to sleep, even though it was a clean shot.

Its disgusting that Trent Cole isnt even in the top 5 of fan votes for defensive ends in the NFC pro-bowl voting.

There isnt a defensive end in the league thats been playing better then him and fans dont even think hes top 5 in the NFC?

It just shows you how truely little most NFL fans know about the game.

Does anyone else see this whole new system as ridiculous.

Cardinals defensive lineman Alan Branch was fined $10,000 for roughing the passer. He “unnecessarily struck the quarterback in the head and neck area.” It was his second offense.

————————————————————-

Branch should be fined an additional 50K for impersonating a defensive lineman ………….

Cole fourth offense and only 20k. That should get some black and gold feathers fluffed up.

“2. Cardinals defensive lineman Alan Branch was fined $10,000 for roughing the passer. He “unnecessarily struck the quarterback in the head and neck area.” It was his second offense.”

I thought Goodell had a set system where he handed down fines. First offense was $25,000, second was $50,000.

If you only get $10,000 for the second offense, what was the fine for the first one, your left shoelace?
