no suspension even after his comments.  Wow.  I think the league is setting an example that it's ok to be wreckless. 

I hope they put in the rule for ejection, but not the way he currently proposes it.  Make it where the player has to sit out the rest of the current drive and the opposing team is rewarded significantly.... such as 15 additional yards, if within 15 yards to endzone, auto first down, ball at the 1, and ball placed at 15 on the following kickoff if opposing team scores.

Don't think that's settled yet.

Suspensions tend to take longer, and it wouldn't be effective till next season anyway.

DENVER - The Broncos defense played on the edge all season, blurring the lines between intimidating and penalties.

Super Bowl 50 featured a dominant performance with a cost. The NFL fined cornerback Aqib Talib $26,044 for separate incidents involving a facemask on receiver Corey Brown and taunting, our partners at The Denver Post learned Friday.


The ruling means Talib is not expected to be suspended after the league reviewed his actions.

I'd really rather they didn't suspend Talib. It was bad and he admitted it was intentional and I get that but I really don't want the NFL to start going down the road where basically every personal foul is a suspension. Burfict getting 3 games was extreme. He should have gotten 1, maybe 2. Now they're considering a suspension for a facemask? Can't wait for roughing the passer to be an automatic ejection and 1 game suspension.

It's not going to make anyone feel any better or help us in any way.

suspend him and players like him wont consider the 15 yard mark the start of "free pass" territory. I don't know why that's hard to comprehend.

      This is an important point.  When you let the offense choose the matchup so easily you are only hurting yourself.  At least make them work to get the matchup they want.

      [PFF] Tetairoa McMillan Will Unlock Bryce Young and the Panthers Offense!

      This is incredibly dishonest, and you know it. We didn't cherry-pick a "small amount of deep throws late in the year." We reviewed every one of Bryce's deep throws using the NFL's own film and data via NFL Pro. The analysis was thorough, transparent, and contextualized with game film. Dismissing that as cherry-picking is not only incredibly disingenuous, it is textbook gaslighting as well. Let's walk through the actual data: Top-10 in deep ball accuracy Top-5 in short-range accuracy Bottom-10 in intermediate accuracy (not ideal, but not "league worst" either) If you're going to lean on the "no pressure" qualifier again, his deep passing under pressure was covered. So no... it wasn't cherry-picked. Look, you don't have to believe in Bryce. That's your right... but misrepresenting clear, consistent evidence crosses the line from skepticism into willful intellectual dishonesty.

      big picture though, that largely sounds like a horrible idea to go about things.  Not saying I think they did that.  Think the illusion of that is largely just PRish of presenting a image of things working out well.  But yeah, you don't want your WR influencing who you draft at TE.  Players are going to be bringing crazy bias into the equation and a 23 year old struggling QB shouldn't be making your top 10 pick.
