NFL has fined five teams for faking injuries this year - ProFootballTalk

The NFL isn’t messing around.The faking of injuries creates an unfair competitive advantage. It undermines the integrity to the game. And thus the NFL must take action when it believes teams are faking injuries.Per a source with knowledge of the situation, five teams have been fined this year...

There is a rumor that Mason Rudolph will be fined 50,000 for pretending to be a QB.

( I kid I kid)

Anywho apparently the league is starting to crack down to these fake shenanigans due to the gulp integrity of the game.



**** that went out the window post cheatgate.

They should unless you want to watch soccer and the magic healing spray. That said outside of five minutes before half teams should get time to sub. This became an issue because you cannot sub players.

Yea, when I read that line used by the league office…… “ it’s affecting the integrity of the game”, I kind thought they were full of beans (could use worse word) . Then I HEARD t*mmyb*y scoff and sigh,

Right then on the spot, I stuffed a turd in a box and addressed it to league office.

The NFL cares about money. In NO WAY do they care about integrity (unless it is costing them money). This is just another route to su jective determinations on the field which, oddly, can impact games how the NFL desires.

Note, I am not saying that players don't fake injuries. Just that it isn't why the NFL is "acting."

Pretty hard to prove

I hear Brady is questionable with a shoulder

In the spirit of Ravens week.........

this could be called the Limas Sweed rule. Remember when he dropped that wide open catch against the Ravens?

We must lead the lead the league all time in rules named for our players action.

Mel Blount rule
Hines Ward rule
Kenny Pickett.......the qb slide rule last season in college.

 

[Black & Gold Bleeder]

dont forget the roids rule.

 

[MT~Forged]

Yeah starting to look more like soccer than the WWE it is supposed to be.

 

[Steelr4evr]

Integrity of the game?Or is it still defined as a entertainment product?

Exhibit A. New England Patriots******.That's all you really need to counter that line of bs.

The NFL promotes gambling..hahaha

Integrity is still doing the right thing when nobody is looking.

They've been faking that injury **** for many many years. Most of it is meant to disrupt the flow of the game on the opponents scoring drives.

 

[Drink IRON City]

I wonder if I “fake” an injury while paying for ticket, would that affect the “integrity” of the sale………?

That one last week was so obvious. It stopped the clock and gave the D and advantage. It was so obvious during the game and replay his players told him to fall down and fake an injury.

 

[ExUSAF]

Seems like a simple solution - if you are "injured", you must stay out for some period of time - say somewhere between a full quarter to the rest of the game. Do it in the fourth quarter and you're out the equivalent time in the next game.

Worth the fine for the win.

I heard Pickett was going to get fined for faking an injury today for that tiny tackle he took from Smith. But he has a note from the doctor that he indeed at a broken vagina and couldn’t finish the game without feminine hygiene products.

Yeah because he is in control of the concussion protocol. Yeah a tiny tackle where a guy slung him to the ground. I get the attempt at humor but knowing your dislike of Pickett it comes across not as funny as you might perceive. Good time to remind you that Pickett has one of the better under pressure percentages in the league. That doesn't translate to pussified.

Seriously making fun of your QB who took a nasty hit where he was whipped into the ground (normally a penalty) and ended up in the concussion protocol. I guess you can add to your list or reasons for calling him a bust already. You don't make fun of your own player when he took a nasty hit and tried to play through it. You obviously seriously have issues with KP. Are you really as Steelers fan?

Ford's agendas are stronger than his fanhood. He has a touch of cooch big headed syndrome. He thinks he could be a better GM by just doing it as a part time hobby. When presented with statistical facts they are only good if they support his opinion.

Yeah not cool to rag on your own player when the hit was unnecessarily violent. Just not cool.

Oh, no did I make fun of your girlfriend who barely took a hit and had to leave the game? Maybe next time Smith will give him a bottle, burp him, change his diaper and gently put him in his crib when he sacks him.

That wasn’t a nasty hit. It was barely a tackle. He needs to grow a set if he’s going to play in the AFC north.

His head hit the ground doofus that isn't barely a hit. But if you are in the insulting mood we can talk about you have Rudy's **** so far down your mouth it **** out your arse. If you want to be a ******** do it on your own time.

How @slashsteel thinks Pickett should be sacked.

It's not cute when you have a 20 some post thread about how great a third stringer is. But my all means continue with your love affair.
