There will be a lot of talk about that fine, most people I heard from yesterday both at work and on the radio didn't think the hit warranted a fine. I said he would be fined as soon as I saw it. IMO, Kolb and Reid are as much at fault as anyone for putting Pimp in the position, going over the middle in a zone like it's man coverage, then floating the pass. You're gonna' get killed doing that. But still, the rules state that you can't lead with the crown of your helmet. If he'd have went in with his eyes up and stuck his face in Pimps chest, like they teach you from day one, he might not have been fined. The days of guys that tackle, I mean actually tackle and wrap guys up, are long gone. Guys are launching themselves like missiles, and the league wants it to stop.

Putting Pimp in that position?

Let's make sure to put all receivers on a go route when the d is in cover 2? Jackson is extremely effective on crossing routes in case you missed the past couple years.

[Zanshin]

Actually all receivers on a go route against a cover 2 is a legitimately awesome idea. Bad example.

[reese125]

Let's try and read between the lines here and put Madden down for a sec.

You're most effective routes against the cover 2 are going to be your passes over the top the LB's in between the hashes in the middle of the field or over top the DB's on Munsons 16 yd sideline routes.

[ice grillin you]

he put him in that position because he waited forever to throw the ball then instead of taking the sack tried to make a pass with two men all over him which let the d know it was not going farther than six yards....

the route was fine the throw falls under the category of attempted murder

Hitting the slot receiver over the linebacker and between the safties. Streaks get you there.

Dunta robinson fined 50k for his hit on desean jackson

That's a fairly hefty fine. Did Desean get a fine for giving Robinson a concussion?

[shorebird]

I disagree about the route, You don't think the safetys not waiting for what happened, a guy going over the middle?? If you want to sit down in the zone, then fine, but you don't send guys over the middle in a crossing pattern against zone coverage. I can still admit, and did, that the pass sucked donkey ass, but don't send the little man on a crossing route. And yeah, overload one side with your TE and two wideouts, one goes long and the other on a slant, the TE runs a hook or a crossing pattern, then you don't have a safety running ahead full steam ready to kill someone. Christ, it's football 101.

.......and I don't play no fargin' video games.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Are you serious? Dont send him across the middle? That's how you "run people open". Crossing routes are a vital part of the offense.

It's the qb's responsibility to not get his people murdered.

But sometimes shtein happens and people get blown up.

i think the only practical solution to the dilemma facing the nfl is for them to exclusively use zombies as players.
