Sherrod Martin fined 40K by the NFL

Getting as bad as NBA officiating.

They won't let guys like Harrison play the game.

Guys like this, MADE the NFL into what it is. Guys like Buckus, and Singletary. Now you want to change it into flag football?

Some of these fines are really, really nitpicking. Most people can tell when a play was meant to happen or not.

I dont think the NFL should be able to fine someone if the ref did not give a PF on the play. Its just not fair to the players the way its set up. So punching a guy in the face is fine as long as your winning but if you hit someone not the Gooddell way its 100,000 out of your paycheck. Yea makes complete since.

Was this the goal line penalty of his? It'd be one thing if what he was doing was done in a menacing or overtly aggressive way, but damn.. How about when Jstew got his concussion a few weeks ago? Yea Stew wasn't a defenseless receiver but that hit was late and aimed directly at his head, just dirty really, and that dude didn't even get a penalty, much less a fine.

They need to make these fines percentage based; guys like Martin can't afford the ridiculous officiating of 2010. And how about priorities as well? A boxing match on the field nets you 25k, while playing the actual game is almost double that? Insane.

    • Why would we not be contenders? As long as Bryce plays like he did when he came back, we absolutely can be contenders...that is...   if the defense plays better... which is why adding someone like Ramsey when we have a QB on a rookie deal and can afford it makes sense IMO. No one thought of the Commanders being contenders last year or the Texans the year before and so on and so forth. Top-end QB play, especially for a guy on a rookie deal, changes everything in terms of timelines. Regardless of what this board thinks, I hope the front office is willing to he aggressive in thks window we currently have with a rookie QB deal  
    • Would absolutely love to have him. I dont think he would require more than a 5th rounder. The biggest thing with his contract is the amount of guaranteed money. As long as they can work out and scenario where the Panthers aren't on the hook for a lot of that, I think it's a no-brainer. The Panthers can come up with $20M at the drop of a hat with restructuring Moton's contract, so there definitely isn't an issue from a money perspective. Jaycee paired with Ramsey along with Mike Jack would give us one of the best CB groups in the league. The one caveat I see is that safety still remains our biggest current weakness. We need a starting caliber S more than CB, simply put. But adding someone like Ramsey would be amazing as long as the compensation made sense. Ramsey could also play for FS snaps also. I also dont understand this nonsense about being seasons away. We have a QB on a rookie deal who was playing at an elite level to end last season. Within reason, now is absolutely the time to make moves like trading for Ramsey.
    • He'd be a huge upgrade for this year, but we're still not going to be contenders with him and I'd rather keep the cap space to roll into next season to spend on a younger player who can be an impact starter for us for the next 3-5 years while we're hoping to contend.
