Hall of Famer
Lot of Ravens on Jets 53.
All injured.
All injured.
Yeah, I was wondering about that, too on one page back
Oh, sorry I missed that bit.yeah but now its not just them being assertive etc. they've just fined him on top of that
Per Tom Pelliserro:
"Not only was #Browns QB Baker Mayfield fined $12,500 for his comments on officiating, #Rams LB Clay Matthews and #Lions DB Tracy Walker were also fined $12,500 for the same offense, I'm told. A message from the NFL amidst mounting criticism in locker rooms and elsewhere."
all the nfl are doing here is souring relations even more - they probably should be doing some self-reflection about why the players are almost unanimously unhappy with the officiating rather than 'sending a message' - as if that somehow protects the integrity of their game
Clay Matthews sent out a tweet about the officiating and called out Al Riveron and got the same damn fine as Baker. Just downright ridiculous the NFL stands with their crooked officials even when it's obvious they are wrong.
As much as I despise the fact that players can't criticize the sorry-ass refs, it's actually NOT against it all. Freedom of speech doesn't equate to freedom of consequence.Its truly against freedom of speech.
This might be technically correct but at the same time it puts NFL on Kim Jong Il level. All of America is talking about awful officiating and instead of listening and doing something to improve it, they choose to say "Fuck you all, pay up."As much as I despise the fact that players can't criticize the sorry-ass refs, it's actually NOT against it all. Freedom of speech doesn't equate to freedom of consequence.

PATRICK MAHOMESQB, KANSAS CITY CHIEFS
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Patrick Mahomes (knee) is facing a 3-5 week absence.
Mahomes suffered a grim-looking knee injury in Thursday night's win over Denver, though his MRI revealed minimal damage outside of his dislocated knee cap. Per Rapoport, Mahomes "stretched" his ligaments, but nothing was torn. The possibility of surgery, even in the offseason, has yet to be discussed as Mahomes is confident he can return for either Week 11 against the Chargers (that will be a Monday night game in Mexico City) or after Kansas City's Week 12 bye. Matt Moore is tentatively expected to start in Mahomes' place, though Chad Henne (ankle) could be in that mix as well once he returns from injured reserve.
