Carlos Rogers Says Gregg W Had A Bounty Program With Redskins

Based on what Carlos said, I see nothing wrong with it. I know everytime the Eagles played the Skins everyone would joke as to who's head Williams had the most money on that week. Everyteam had something similar but Williams didn't try to hide it. Now paying players to intentionally injure another player via cheapshot is a diffferent story. I think somewhere along the way his maniacal mind lost grip with reality and he took things too far.

It went on to guys just suggesting stuff in a room,” Rogers said. “If you knock this person out, let’s say a receiver, he comes across the middle. Safety knocks him out, a legal hit, you get this amount of money.”

Then there's no reason to punish the Saints

The Saints organization is being fined for not stopping it after they were told to stop it. Loomis was aware and did nothing. To punish the redskins the same way you would have to know the FO knew about it,. were warned to stop it and then they did nothing or even worse tried to cover it up. Very different scenarios.

I can see a rationale for punishing the Redskins organization for this, most ikely via fine. Ditto the Bills.

On practical terms though, Williams and probably most of the people who would have been involved in the whole thing are long gone from both organizations. Don't know that it makes sense to penalize the current staffs and rosters on a performance basis (draft picks, suspensions, etc) given that situation.

    • Brandt's comment about Wharton was from his KC perspective when Wharton was a UDFA rookie.   "it goes back to the anecdote that Brandt Tillis had when he was in Kansas City. And it would be so easy to just cut Turk Wharton in 2020 when he was an undrafted rookie from a division two college in Missouri. It would been so easy to cut him because then he would have cleared waivers easily. No one knew this guy. They didn't have any joint practices, didn't have a preseason. Would have been so easy to cut him and bring him back on the practice squad and let him continue to build from there. And Brandt essentially said, "No, he's got to make the 53man roster if we're going to have any sort sense of credibility with this team."    
    • Plenty of us were scratching our heads about that signing at the time. Especially with our 3-4 defense. Wharton is kind of a one trick pony situational five tech DT. He doesn't have the beef to hold up against the run and he doesn't have the juice to shift outside. He's basically a situational pass rusher DT. If we paid him $40M+ and he can't start for a historically inept defense then holy poo...
    • Agreed.  300 and 2 or 3 total in Jacksonville in a winning effort would sure be a nice start.
