Has anyone heard if Steve Smith was fined for yanking Jenkins facemask in Sunday's game?

Harper waited too long to take that late hit. There was too much time between Smith's taunting and the hit. I understand why he did it, but it was a mistake. That fired the Panthers up, and we are lucky it didn't cost us a game, as well as a player (Jenkins could have been hurt, and Harper could have been tossed).

I disagree....in fact, I think it took the Panthers best player out of the game mentally. #89 didn't do jack squat after that play.

I didn't even think about that. I will concede that Smith was a non factor after that play. Still not sure it had as much to do with his mentality, as it did our D making adjustments, and keeping him out of the game.
