Ray Lewis willing to help Ahmad Brooks fine for his hit on Drew Brees

I don't think he should be fined. IMO it was not malicious and just incidental. 10 years ago that hit would be legal the nfl has just pussified the qb position to the point where a player is better off if they don't touch the qb at all.

I agree though I hate Lewis

TheDude, these are THE RULES today. It was a clothesline tackle, and under THE RULES it should be flagged, as well as fined. Who's team are you on? I question your side, almost every time I see a post from you.

10 years ago you could hit a defenseless receiver also or actually there was no such thing as defenseless receiver. Hitting one these days always draws a fine. I will be highly shocked if this hit doesn't draw a fine. You have the same space that a pitcher has as a strike-zone. Above the knees and below the armpits, If you can't hit a guy in the bellybutton you are just trying to take someone out of the game or end his career.
