I really disagree with fining Ed Reed $55K for this hit. It is as legal as it gets. I understand that receivers and quarterbacks need to be protected, but if a person gets finded for a hit like this then they may want to start putting flags on the receivers.

Totally agree with you Dave. They might as well not even play defense if that is an illegal hit

It was helmet to helmet & the amount has more to do with the recent past.

I don't think the helmets ever collided. Reeds shoulder impacted the head of Cruz. In any case, if they're going to flag hits like that...every crackback which happens almost every play would be illegal. Reed didn't lead with the helmet, which is the kind of hit that leads to serious injury.

I honestly don't see it. He turned his helmet and hit him with his shoulder. In fact, it would be what I would consider a prettyhit.

As far as the amount of the fine, that he would deserve if guilty. He would also be lucky that they didn't try to suspend him again as the Ravens are in the playoffs.

He lead with his shoulder into Cruz's chest area. That is just a good clean football hit!

Oh no! It's helmet to helmet..Can't you see?

They say there is someone for everyone. Apparently you think I am that person for you. So sweet when a man crush on me.

55 G's for that?... Ouch

I think the hit on Vernon Davis was way worse if you use the leagues theory on a what a defenseless receiver is...

Stop the video at the :08 mark prior to the hit. Then do a quick click & stop to move the video along. The first thing touched on Cruz's body is his head & it is snapped towards the camera. It appears to be Reeds helmet that does it.

Either way that is not a legal hit on a Wr catching a pass.

Not saying I agree that it should be an illegal hit.

Its just what the league has become.

I was for raising taxes before I was against it. You're legally blind. If the helmets touch its after the shoulder hit.

BTW..at 08 the WR hand is on Reeds Helmet.

Oh no, It's everyone else thats blind

Have no clue as to what this means & what it has to do with this.

Ok it wasn't.

Another post that adds nothing to a thread. Your man crush is hilarious.

Go play your Madden game & come up with some more great trade ideas.

I've told you. If you have an issue, take it to PM. Stop clogging up the board with your personal BS. No one cares about your vendetta. I've bitched slapped you around this board so much, you do not enter into a discussion its just the BS stuff no one want to see in a thread.
