Potential Week 8 Fine/Suspension Blotter: Two Dolphins Better Look Over Their Shoulder For What They Did To Joe Flacco

Well, sounds like we're going to have another Ndamokung Suh Watch this week for possible Fine Blotter or even supplemental discipline for this little ditty that Gawker Media caught:

That's Ndamokung Suh choking backup Baltimore QB Ryan Mallet, with the official coming by.

He might not be the most likely suspension this week, even with his track record...

That would go to Kiko Alonso, who probably will get at least $50,000, AND DAMN WELL SHOULD BE SUSPENDED, for this hit job that forced Mallet into the game:

The Tweet is valid. Alonso was flagged but NOT ejected! Probably numerous flags for the fight that followed, which might only increase the number of fines from this situation.

In this league where only the quarterback has much importance, it is becoming clearer and clearer by the NFL game that, fines be damned, the objective has become elimination of the opposing starting quarterback.

You could have TWO suspensions -- Suh for his record, and Alonso for his hit.  But at some point, people are going to have to realize that, even if Alonso's is the only one, that is the FOURTH NFL suspension in a month of play.

Scoring is at least a field goal down for a very good reason.  This statistic might change this week because some of the teams weren't penalized that much in Week 7, but, as of the Thursday Night Football game of Week 7, the four highest-fined teams this season to that point were all leading their divisions.

Suh was flagged for his choke, but the penalty was declined because the Dolphins committed THREE penalties on that play.  The Ravens won 40-0.
