Um…because he did nothing illegal. It’s easy – Someone watched the tape back and realized the ref should’ve never thrown the flag.

Ummm maybe you should re-watch the tape, there was not even a flag thrown on the play.

Maybe Goodell should have fined Chilo Rachal for brushing Pollards back side.

Didn’t Suh get fined last year for pushing a guy down too hard?

Simular hits have netted fines of at least $20K. It is a clear helmet-to-helmet on a defensless reciever. Who knows anymore. **shrugs**

BTW, The hit occured with 13:42 left in the 1st, if anyone is wanting to review the play.

It wasn’t an illegal hit. Stop trying to stir things up with your nonsense.

No foul was called nor would a penalty have been appropriate. Any contact with the receiver’s helmet was incidental to the bulk of the contact that was applied by a proper shoulder tackle.

This site was immediately calling for a fine on this play after it occurred and obviously you need to review the rules. It might have been surprising to you that he was not fined but apparently the officials on the field and the league office didn’t find this too hard to determine.

I agree that the league needs to clarigy its rules with regards to what is allowed to be done with receivers in defenseless positions. Leading with the shoulder and tucking one’s head (as Chancellor did to avoid a helmet to helmet hit) cannot be penalized. It is stupid to think that there will never be contact with helmets but it is the league’s intent to eliminate the incidents in which the defender leads with his helmet. Again, Chancellor did not lead with his helmet.

I know that it’s okay to touch the reciever, but are you allowed to hit him at all? Is it like in basketball where you can touch a guy going up for a dunk, but you can’t push him? What is the difference between a push and a hit on a defensless reciever. I understand all the other rules about pass interference and such, but I’ve never heard it explained what the secondary can leagally do to a defensless reciever. Just don’t hit too hard seems pretty arbetrary.

That was a perfectly legal hit and he wasn’t flagged for it. Why would he get fined?

That entire game was so poorly officiated for both sides in that game. Is it me, or has the officiating become worse? The NFL has so many rules concerning hits on players that I think the refs have no idea how to call a game anymore. We need to simplify this game to get consistent officiating.

Maybe the league decided it would risk violating minimum wage laws if they took any more of his money away.

Chancellor did nothing fineworthy last night. Trent Cole, we’ll see about.
