unfortunately intent doesnt come into the NFL's thinking even one bit. They fined Young for taunting. That has absolutely nothing at all to do with player safety. Remember the fines we got last year for chop blocks? They fine pretty much any unneccessary roughness or player safety penalty, and this one is going to get fined, that I am virtually certain.I agree. The guys on the radio this morning are saying Suh will probably be fined for going at the guy's knees. If so, it's a reputation thing only. He was trying to make a play (albiet ill-advised, given how far behind the play he was), but it wasn't dirty. A penalty, absolutely. A dirty play deserving a fine, no.
The fine is meaningless given the amount he makes but the bigger issue is that its a strike against him already for the year and with his reputation he could reach suspension stage I fear pretty quickly.
