Well, that doesn't really explain why Jackson was on the bench while RGIII was throwing and running for touchdowns. If it isn't the Big 12, why was the college kid lighting it up and the "all star" riding the pine?

It said: CB Janoris Jenkins needed to be fined $15,750.00, for his hit on Fred Davis, DE Robert Quinn needs to cough up $7,875 for a hit to the head of Trent Williams and they also figured that G Quinn Ojinaka should match that $7,875 for a late hit on London Fletcher.

Hmm. No fine for the forearm/elbow to RGIII's head?

And if the league was willing to fine $15k for an illegal hit on Fred Davis, I wonder why the refs couldn't be bothered to throw a 15-yard flag on the play.

My thoughts exactly about the elbow to the RGIII's head by Dunbar. It was profiled by the network announcers.

Jo-Lonn Dunbar, Quintin Mikell, Robert Quinn, William Hayes, Cortland Finnegan, Kendall Langford and Craig Dahl were among the Rams players taking shots at Griffin during a 31-28 Rams victory. All seven escaped NFL fines for the hits I outlined during a play-by-play accounting of the game. That means the NFL saw their tactics as within the rules.

Not many will watch if the leagues TOP players go out with injuries due to refs poor calls.

Rams dirty? Not according to the NFL

Mike Sando asked... RG3 right on Rams?
