How much was the ref fined?
Why would that be? What ref?
At least he didn't get suspended for losing his cool. Sad though that a player being dirty deliberately trying to hurt somebody that's been beating him play after play all game long got the lesser fine. Clear priorities by the NFL.
I was a little worried about a suspension, but knew for sure he would get fined and I even said he would.
AD did two separate things that can be fined. Britt committed one and got hammered for it. 20K for a cheap shot is a big fine.
If you grab a facemask and yank a guys head around and don't let go you are going to write a check. AD did it twice. He's writing checks.
IMO the league went lighter on him because they know he was cheapshotted and was fucking pissed.
Plus something tells me AD can afford it a little easier lol.
LOL so true. He's got a little cheddar now.
But it was fucking dumb and he admitted that.
Speaking of which, I always thought uniform league fines were a little unfair. To some players, that's chump change, to others a large fine can be an entire game check.
the minimum salary is over half a mil now isn't it?
hopefully next time he learns to let it go so the other team gets a 15 yard penalty. that would have made the job easier for the d and harder for the opposition.
Yup..........and he said that. So hopefully he doesn't do something like that again.
And, the ref didn’t react on the out of bounds push from behind....Until Donald got up and grabbed his face mask. I don’t get it...open season on Rams players?
why the F wasn’t the flag thrown immediately after Britt hit Donald 5 yards out of bounds.
Not true on either count.

Listen I know people want to "homer" this up but it was really fucking STUPID of AD to go after the guy when he was getting a 15 yard penalty and killing the drive by putting SEA at their 10 yard line in a 1st and 25 situation. Offsetting penalties just nullified that. Remember they got to the Rams 35 yard line and had second down from there with a stopped clock. That's a VERY precarious situation with Wilson as your opposing QB. The Rams D held, but that storyline could have been different.
If an opposing player did this we would be laughing at how much of a knucklehead he is.
AD put them at risk, if they had lost it would be on him and I am SURE that McVay told him that. I would have if I was the HC.
There is a gigantic difference between 2nd and 10 at your 25 and 1st and 25 at your 10.
We not me. He forgot that twice last week. Hopefully he won't again. But he has had a few instances where he let him temper get the best of him. This time it could have cost a game.
I think the world of his abilities and I am glad he's on the Rams for many years. But that was a boneheaded move both times.
