Yeah, but there are many acts that are against the rules, that is why teams get flagged. A late hit is a foul that will cost the Colts 15 yards. Supposedly it is a good while after the ball was delivered, now that would be interesting. It might not only be a penalty but a fine as well.
Sean Taylor and CP got fined for wearing a different socks than allowed (I think). Hitting Brady would make a lot more sense to me. That is why I was surprised not to see a late hit in the Skins-Pats game. Some might say the Redskins won't do it because it shows no class, well, what the Pats did showed no class either.
Bob Sanders made it easier for the NFL to fine him, and maybe a suspension if he hits Brady late.
