    I've always wondered why the NFL allowed a RB to stiff arm a defender's face mask. I'd think that would be potentially a lot more dangerous than a lot of the stuff they've outlawed in the game.

    The players,fans,,and others who are disgusted and tired of Goodell's bull**** could always band together and try and bring some changes to things.Seriously if enough players were sick of his crap could always voice their displeasure together about the way Goodell is changing the sport.He is ruining football as we know it with his idiotic rules.The way the game has always been played has made millions of people fans of the sport through generations and Goodell is taking away or changing important parts of the game.When he is done the sport may not even be noticeable as the sport we know it as today.The man needs to be stopped before he destroys the game we all love.

    I also hope this fine doesn't make Battle hesitant or make him change the way he plays due to the fear of losing more money because after all he doesn't make that much compared to most players.

    Titans running back Jackie Battle has been fined $21,000 for unnecessary roughness after the NFL ruled he struck an opponent with his helmet on a run play in Sunday’s game against the Texans.

    The league ruled Battle was in violation of a new rule that restricts ball carriers from initiating contact with the crown of the helmet outside the tackle box.

    So is this TitansInsider really just a bot? Or some intern who is too stubborn to post in a topic that has already been made?

    Not hatin', just wondering.

    I could see it go either way.


    I dunno why we really need this bot.. we get most of it's info earlier and from other sources. Ah well, I guess it has some good info every now and then.
