2017 Week 12 Fine/Suspension Blotter: Penalties for Broncos-Raiders exceed $1.2 million

  • Green Bay Packers: Richard Rodgers: $24,309 for a targeting block – a block in which the helmet is used to battering-ram.
  • That's the Packers now over the first threshold for another $50,000 fine.
From the big fight in Oakland:
  • Oakland Raiders: The “contact with an official ejection will cost Gabe Jackson $30,387.
  • And that's both thresholds in one week for the Raiders. That's $100,000, both fines for both thresholds, and they're dollar-for-dollar starting with some of Jackson's fine.
  • The only other fine from the brawl: Denver Broncos: Shane Ray: $12,154 for involving himself with three different players in the fight from Oakland.
  • Denver Broncos: Later in that same game, Darian Stewart: $24,308 for a helmet shot.
Pro Football Talk has the total from the incident at a huge number, and that's not even close to right.

$570,934 for Talib's suspension
$407,897 for Crabtree's
$30,387 for Jackson
$24,309 for Stewart
$12,154 for Ray

Those are right.

But then you also have to add the Club Remittance penalties:

$50,000 for the Broncos for making the first threshold.
$50,000 for the Raiders for making the first threshold.
$50,000 MORE for the Raiders for making the dollar-for-dollar threshold.
$8807 for the Raiders in dollar-for-dollar fines.

So, in total, that game got a team fine for the Broncos of $50,000 and a team fine for the Raiders of $108,807, for a grand total of just over ONE MILLION TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS.
  • Cleveland Browns: Bryce Treggs: $12,154 for taunting.
  • Cleveland Browns: Jabrill Peppers: $24,308 for another one of those lean-in helmet headbutt jobs that most football masturbators are calling a “football play”.
  • Los Angeles Rams: Blake Countess: $24,308 for a defenseless receiver hit that concussed the other player.
  • And on the drugs front: Carolina Panthers: Charles Johnson: Suspended 4 games for PEDs.
More to come. LOTS MORE.
