Gene Washington is out of his mind. Fined Justin Tuck $7500 for a hit on Bollinger that the announcers were incredulous was called a penalty

Goodall had to step in and rescind it.

The NFL is turning into a joke on how they treat the QB's.

Perfectly clean hit; hell, he did everything he could not to kill the QB.

Even Aikman thought the flag was a joke. -- nm - Shaun Nov 8, 08:04 1
- Yeah, but he got concussed just watching it. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 8, 08:08
When you have Brady and Romo out with injuries, is it any surprise why they protect QBs like they do?.... - budice Nov 8, 07:56 2
- There's a big difference between the Tuck hit and the Jared Allen multiple knee dives in the same game - Stewie Nov 8, 08:29
- And neither of those was a dirty hit. If you want what the NFL is selling on the QB's put em in red jerseys and give em a flag. - Will Hunting Nov 8, 07:58
If he had picked him up and slammed him into the ground I could see the fine but that was a normal hit on the QB. -- nm - krusty Nov 8, 07:55 1
- Exactly. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 8, 07:58

- If they were in doubt about that hit; they really need to get new competent refs. - Will Hunting Nov 8, 07:51 1
  - I was fuming yesterday after I heard about the fine. - krusty Nov 8, 07:54
