Precisely why I would fine him. Gruden has to find a new, vivid way to send the message.

I'd be fair and make it a rule for any QB. But I doubt Cousins or McCoy would rack up that fine.

Not sure how much they could fine him before the players union would step in and have an issue with it. Probably not enough to make a difference I would guess.

You could be right. So bench him, take away his parking spot, do SOMETHING coach-like to send a new, untried, and urgent wake-up.

How about since it was a pre-season game. Jay just pulled him from that series or a play. Something tells me hitting Griffin's pride is more hurtful to him then hitting his wallet.

Fine. Good idea.

Do we know why Griff got called twice for false starts? He was baiting the defense to jump for sure but I saw nothing worthy of a penalty.

Another point of emphasis regarding rule enforcement. Funny you never see Peyton Manning get called for it.

In regards to Johnny D-bag, this didn't take long. Welcome to the AFC North.

That would be like fining a playing for fumbling or missing a block. That isn't going to fly unfortunately with the player or the NFLPA.
