Does Harrison get suspended now?

If another OLB for this team could get to the QB then some of the workload / eyes would be taken off James...Just my .02!!

Looked to me that the ref was reaching for the flag before the hit.

The question I have is will he be fined more than 25K. I'll be pissed if he is.

LB James Harrison said he's not expecting a fine for his personal-foul hit on QB Ryan Fitzpatrick. "It's the same exact thing if you go back and look at the play from last week," he said. "I got the same flag (then), but I didn't get a fine."

That was a B/S call by the refs. Harrison hit him hard and legal.

Even the Bills OL called BS on that play. I hope the league fines him big time, not because he deserves it but to really piss off Silverback!! Something the Ratbirds do not want to happen!!

He should stop talking, now they'll go back to that one!!

Finnigan and Andre Johnson are only getting fined 25k and NOT getting suspended, so no way they go and suspend Harrisson tomorrow. It's ok to rip a guys helmet off his head and start throwing shots at him while he's down, or punch QB's from Pittsburgh in the neck.

I was just about to say the same thing. Looks like the league may be easing up a little. Harrison was fined $100000 in a matter of weeks, and he hasn't been fined at all since then. Between Seymour's only 25K, and Finnigan's and Johnson's only 25K, looks like maybe the NFL got our message.

If you get a chance to look at the replay of the hit yesterday take notice of the referee he has his arm in motion throwing the flag before Harrison actually hits him.
