League Fines 4 Giants

[BronxRik]

Four Giants among players fined by league on Friday

 

 

Ahmad Bradshaw's chop block in the end zone cost the Giants a safety in their 29-10 loss to the Titans last Sunday. Now that penalty also has cost Bradshaw a $2,500 fine.

 

Bradshaw's fine was one of six imposed by the NFL from the Titans-Giants game.

 

The NFL on Friday also levied fines of $5,000 each against Giants linemen David Diehl, Kareem McKenzie and Adam Koets. Diehl and McKenzie were penalized for unnecessary roughness and Koets was fined for a major facemask.

 

The league also has fined two Titans $5,000 each: cornerback Cortland Finnegan, who threw Giants wide receiver Steve Smith to the ground by his helmet, and Jason Babin, who was fined for a late hit with the crown of his helmet.

A chop block is below the waist?....or below the knees?

It's the high/low combo. I think below the waist for the low offender.

the Titans do play chippy and we let it bother us, totally lost our composure

right, I mean the low component of the play. I swear in the NFL its below the knees. At some lower levels it may be below the waist, but I can't recall a chop block called on a hit as high as Bradshaw's. And then to fine him? Doesn't seem fair to me.
