He should have been fined twice that amount for his ridiculous play versus teams with losing records.

Ya this year you won the super bowl twice already! Yet wint even make the playoffs. Bengals will beat you this week. Ive seen both teams play. And cincy is better than the ravens. Rou ravens fans may wanna pop in tape of 2008 &2010 playoffs for a fresh reminder. Reg season is all well & good. But the ravens CHOKE in the playoffs! And steelers fans already know this man! Yee haw……

Why is it that the qb’s are the highest paid yet get the smallest fines. A well as they’re paid & protected, they should be docked at least 25% of they’re weekly pay.

@ steelersownyou

Still a little sour that the “imposter” Joe Flacco beat your team twice?

It was a great play by Flacco. It save a TD, although the Seahawks did eventually get a field goal. Although the Ravens eventually lost anyway, his “horse-collar” tackle kept the game within reach.

However, there is no truth to the rumor that Flacco will be replacing Ray Lewis at linebacker when he retires. I just wanted to clear that up.

I watched the game, and he hardly pulled down- let go before he took him to the ground. Never imagined at the time that he would be fined. Out of control.

To the steeler fans commenting: 92 yards, game winning touchdown to seal the victory and the sweep. Go ahead and replay that one in your head for awhile.

Flacco should be fined for his quarterback play.

I thought Brett Favre was fined for a hit on a Texans a few years back.
=================================
No.
He was fined for a hit on Jenn Sterger.

Can we stop with all the fines? Im not even paying the fine and it annoys me to no end. Its overboard. football is a rough sport and we have penalty flags to deal with this stuff.

He should have been fined double that for his performances against SEA and JAX.

If that was Peyton Manning he would run out of bounds behind him.

What hit by Stafford?

Don’t know how you qualify not being able to shed a block and then resorting to dragging a guy six inches shorter than you down by the helmet as a “hit.”

Stafford is the man.

I’ve never had a high opinion of Flacco but good for him. I want my QB making that tackle every chance he gets.

Forget the horse collar tackle. He should be fined for impersonating a QB. And prosecuted to the full extent of the law. We shall name it “the incompetent QB Law” court is adjourned!

When, oh when, will these quarterbacks stop making vicious hits on poor defenseless defensive players?

Was there a flag thrown on the play? Didn’t see the game, so it would be nice to know that little piece of info. If there was, this fine is ludicrous and asinine. Goodell has to be stopped in his atttempt to ruin the only sport that matters anymore.

that was the least dangerous tackle i have ever seen and flacco gets fined for it? i know its a penalty but that doesnt mean it has to be fined.

By: seatownballers

seatownballers — Fri, 18 Nov 2011 22:55:39 +0000

Good fine. A clear penalty out of frustration.
Just one question, where does all this ” fine” money go?

By: steelers4life

steelers4life — Fri, 18 Nov 2011 22:49:35 +0000

I am impressed. I didn’t think Joke Flaccid had the cojones to make a play like that.
