Here's my post in the Saints thread about bounty hunting from yesterday:
So, . . . is the bounty program exclusively for defensive players? Apparently, the Buffalo Bills are rumored to have had such a program. . . and my mind turns to the cheap shot (although perhaps legal) hit by WR Stevie Johnson on Eric Berry, with the end of Berry's season and acl damage that could effect his career. Why do I envision the Bill's defensive players telling Johnson after the game, "Great hit man! you get this weeks bounty of $50k. We should put you on the D! ?" I took it a little further by thinking what the Bill's defensive players may have said to Johnson. . . |

You're good Berry, but you aren't that good.

Even if Berry wasn't targeted, that should be an illegal hit. It's not right now but it should be.
Cutting a guy in the open field like that from the side, it's bullshit IMO. |

I think it will likely be changing as the player safety things starts to evolve more and more. |

But thats the way guys block in the open field, liek it or not. It kinda pissed me off that no other Chiefs on the field had something to say to Johnson after the hit. |

Exactly why cut blocks leading with the helmet should be illegal. You can't even touch a QB below the waist, yet this is ok? Doesn't add up right. Although I'm sure it adds up fine in the NFL's pocket.

Johnson gets a fine and Berry misses the whole year with a ripped up knee. It's shit.
I'd think Johnson might want to be a little leary about heading over the middle next season. If he goes for Berry's knee again in a similar situation there might be a fight. |

I wonder if that Lions mascot had a bounty on Charles.

After Johnson just caused me to have to go thru all this, if I were Berry, I'd be willing to take a financial hit to lay a hit on Johnson.
Just me of course. |
