Comments on: Titans’ Harris fined for cheap shot on Lions’ Tulloch http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/09/28/titans-harris-fined-for-cheap-shot-on-lions-tulloch/ ProFootballTalk on NBCSports.com Sun, 19 May 2013 17:59:50 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: ocdn http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/09/28/titans-harris-fined-for-cheap-shot-on-lions-tulloch/#comment-2032155 Sat, 29 Sep 2012 15:12:28 +0000 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=1336510#comment-2032155 Because the “Inept” officials didn’t see the cheap shot and caused a personal foul on Tulloch, this kept the drive alive and resulted in a critical score. Glad to see the Scabs gone!

If the offensive lineman in question played for the Pats, Giants, or Cowboys, Cheap Shot would not appear in the title of the article. But because it’s just Nashville (how many Nashvillians can there be on this site?) you don’t care.

Noticed this for years. It’s lame.

Layed him out with a blind side shot a good 30 yards downfield. That was cheap.

Harris and Tulloch have a lot of history together (going back to college), so hopefully Harris will reach out and apologize.

Football is an emotional game and I can see where players might forget common sense when the level of nasty play wasn’t being kept in check.

WR, TE and RB’s knees are fair game, so why limit defenders where they can hit a QB? Can’t hit below the waist, and you can’t even brush their helmet or shoulder area or you get flagged and fined.

If old timers like John Unitas were around today I have a feeling they’d be having a cow.
