Including lost salary for Myles Garrett, Maurkice Pouncey and Larry Ogunjobi during their suspensions, the tab for this fight comes to a little over $2 million.

All fines go to charities that benefit the Players Association.

I don't like how Garrett's private comments to the committee were made public, whether he was BSing or not, that's not cool

If they were true, then we'd learn about it. I'm also sure he'd want to defend himself in the public's eye and would prefer people knew about it than not. If they are evidently false and he is penalized more greatly, the league would disclose why that is.

I think learning about this would have been inevitable regardless. Learning about this so soon is a different matter entirely, and if it's still under investigation then I see a reason to be a bit iffy about it. I'm not willing to give him much push right now, though. If anything, it's more incriminating to Mason (I honestly keep forgetting his last name so I just keep calling him Mason) and his locker room.

If you were saying it's not cool because of Mason's end of things, then I am much more in agreement on that.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Steelers holding that last wild card spot and likely to go to Hodges next week. I don’t see why not. Seen enough of Rudolph’s ineptitude, and Hodges has done what he’s been asked. See if he can handle more with some game action and a few more weeks of prep under his belt.

Steelers worry me. Gotta beat ‘em in Week 15. Can’t leave the door open. Gotta take this game on Thanksgiving against Dallas or PIT, and I’d probably prefer PIT being in conference and as our direct competition.

If the offense is half decent they have a chance most games. Even the slugfest against Cleveland was 14-7 for a while before the Browns blew it open.

Re: NFL Off Topic

I know that I am old and lame....and basically one of those grumpy "Get off my lawn" guys that I thought I would never become. That being said, I think it so DUMB when a defense gets a turnover, and then the entire defense runs down to the end zone to pose. I'll give a pass to whoever did it first (points for creativity), but the rest are weak. And an extra thumbs down when a team does it while losing by 14+ points.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Since I was born in Baltimore and don't have an NFL team...I'm 100% on the Lamar Jackson bandwagon.

GO RAVENS!

That dude is ridiculous and whatever scheme they have rolling is looking pretty damn unstoppable. One thing I don't see mentioned often, although I admittedly don't watch too much sports TV, is that Lamar seems to have amazing protection. Shout out to big Ronnie Stanley holding down the blindside, Go Irish!

One thing I love seeing from Lamar is his read progression. Like on QB I recently saw play (Kyle Allen) was atrocious with his reads. Literally stared down every first target and it was so painfully obvious where he was going with every pass. They won the game on the back of CMC.

Anyways it's really fun to watch Lamar do his thing and I'm hoping the Ravens go win the Super Bowl.

When I first saw it once teams were allowed to celebrate together again, I thought it was neat because (1) it was "unique" for its time, (2) they were right next to the endzone, (3) it was a completely pivotal point of that game and a team effort as it was a fumble, and recovery for a touchdown with blockers helping get the edge.

Lately though, I've been having the exact same thoughts as you. They're running 50+ yards for an individual play in an inconsequential moment of a game, and it's been rehashed for about every defensive turnover that you see. If this shot is to make the morning paper, then ok I guess. Otherwise, find something new instead of the same retread.

First place I ever saw it happen was in Madden. I think this fad is a soppy cat of a video game.

Re: NFL Off Topic

Not saying anyone has said exactly this, but I think it's funny how hypocritical football can be. The same person that says celebrate with your teammates turns around and gets annoyed with the team celebrations.

Re: NFL Off Topic

I can’t even front...I kinda hate it too, especially if you’re down by 2+ TDs.

It was cool in the beginning but now I’m like wrap this **** up.

I don’t mind it when the turnover is in or right near the end zone, but when they have to run 40 yards to get there it’s a bit overkill.
