That'll teach him!

Oh...wait...no it won't.

I think $16k per Russell Wilson hit is easily affordable when we get to Seattle.

Harbaugh may have coached at Stanford but he is clearly not the sharpest knife in the drawer -- backing his player's bad habits by failing teach how the game is played. Harbaugh is letting emotion take precedence over reason. That would never happen to Bill "most scintillating interview ever" Bellicheck.

Weak. Total slap on the wrist. Expect that sh*t to continue with fines like that.

It appears Teddy will also help pay for it... LMAO

I am all for the penalty on the play... but a fine, that is just ridiculous.

It had no malicious intent. If he did then the other hand wouldn't have came around to protect Brees some from being slammed to the ground. It was a move to tackle that was just a little high otherwise it would have been fair play.

Fines are getting ridiculous. Penalty was enough in this case.

I agree with this. I don't have a problem with the penalty but there was nothing malicious about the hit.

how is it not malicious? He swung his arm at Brees' neck/head. A good football play would've been to lower the shoulder and drive it into the QB's back, but he chose to go high instead. And it cost him.

His other hand came around to "protect" Brees? LOL. I'm sorry, but that's just crazy talk. Your explanation is so convoluted, it's not even making any sense.
