Johnson/Finnegan Fight

[Gee!]

Anyone know where you can see the footage of it? Just heard about it.. Heard it was pretty good. Helmets coming off and punches landed..

 

[Shzm13]

Meh

 

[Shane]

Not bad for an NFL fight. Although it was mostly Johnson doing the fighting lol

 

[Gee!]

That was pretty good for an NFL fight.. They usually dont get that far..

Thanx Shzm

 

[Shzm13]

He'll probably get suspended when he's the most important part of his team's offense. Pretty stupid, imo.

Do punches = auto suspension in the NFL? I think they are in the nba, not sure in this league.

Was Darth Vader watching football with you?

That was nasty. Haven't seen a fight like that in a while. Johnson landed a couple. Finnegan known for being cheap shot artist. Good player though.

 

[WarnerHOF]

Fight? More like Finnegan getting his butt beat down.

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

GD you Johnson! He is on my fantasy team...

 

[desertdawg]

Like a red headed step child.

 

[RugbyMuffin]

Both should have been kicked out of the game, and both will be suspended for more than one week.

Wow, the Titans season went down the crapper fast.

 

[splitsecond]

Finnegan definitely has had that coming for quite some time.

 

[NJCardFan]

Johnson is an idiot. He'll be suspended at least 2 games. Not that his team is going anywhere, but they're not out of it yet and this may be the nail in the coffin.

 

[Assface]

No announcements yet. My guess is that both players get fined but only Finnegan gets suspended.

Were you watching todays game, or are you just talking about everything in general.

Cause in todays game I was amazed with some of the shots they were letting him get away with. Whenever he would go to chuck Andre off the line he would hit him in the throat or when they would turn and run he would swing his inside arm down and tag him below the belt. Everyone over here watching the games was amazed something didn't start earlier. We rewound the game at least 10x to focus on something that Finnegan had done to Andre (and thats only on the plays we could see the two of them)

Finnegan has been fined a few time this season for unruly behavior on the field. He has a better chance of suspension than A. Johnson.

He is one of the dirtiest players in the league and this is a long time coming.

Not defending Finnegan because he is a dirty player but he didn't throw any punches. It would be an injustice if only Finnegan gets suspended.

 

[oaken1]

did either player get ejected today?

 

[82CardsGrad]

did either player get ejected today?

Yup. Both were tossed.

 

[Gee!]

Thats what I think too.. Finnegan is a repeat offender with a reputation of these kinda things..

In general, dude is a dirty player. Maybe even dirtier than James Harrison.

Finnegan has already been fined 3 times this year alone. He's known as one of the leagues dirtiest players. Andre Johnson, on the other hand, has never once been in trouble of any kind. He's never even put out the type of sound bite that his position has become known for. There's no way in hell the league comes down hard on one of the league's truly good guys in this situation. They're going to treat this as a chronic offender pushing a positive role model type player too far.

I would think you are right, but the way Andre pummeled him into the ground and kept swinging has me thinking they both get at least a game off. I loved it, better than the Ben slap.

Finnegan is such a bitch, he is pretty well known for being a dirty player. Andre Johnson is about as mild mannered as they come, so it really takes a lot of crap to get him to go off like that. They've had a beef with each other for a while, glad Finnegan got put in his place.

 

[BirdMan21]

I was amazed at all of the stuff that the refs let Finnegan get away with today. How Andre made it till the 4th quarter without doing SOMETHING to him was amazing to me. Really backs up everything about him being a good guy and made it clear how hard he really wanted to just make it through the game and move on. After the 3rd or 4th time of getting hit in the throat or in the balls I would have done something, and I am one of the most laid back and relaxed guys in the world.

If the Texans do a good job of sending game footage to the NFL then there is zero chance that Andre gets suspended, even with throwing the punches. He held back from doing something for wayyyyyyyyyy longer than just about anyone in the league could have.
