    Default Pollard Should Not Be Fined

    Let us just say, what the hell else could he have done? He turned his shoulder into the wr and the receivers head came down. If this continues the db's will for sure go down to the knees and than you will see some career enders. If Pollard does not hit this guy he goes for a TD.

    Yes he should be fined. Others have been fined for the same move. If you are going to fine one, you need to fine all. I agree that the rule is BS, but once you set the precedent, you have to follow through. Pollard should be, and almost certainly will be fined because of the precedent the NFL has set.

    OK, fine BUT the rule should be changed. It's called TACKLE for a reason.
