Eric Reid Fined $10,026 for Unnecessary Roughness After Hit on Zach Ertz

Why would Reid be fined? All he did was avoid Ertz who charged at him. Ducking a guy charging at you is unnecessary now? What’s he supposed to do let Ertz wreck him after the whistle? Reminds me of Sunshine in Remember the Titans.

Edit: Watching it back now, I was wrong. I thought I saw the ref toss a flag after the hit on Wentz but was mistaken. They didn't throw one until after the whole Ertz thing. Kind of surprising to be honest.

From what I can tell, the penalty on Reid wasn't for what happened with Ertz but for hitting the QB well after the ball was already gone which thus prompted the response from Ertz that drew the flag that negated Reid's roughing. With this in mind I can see why Reid would be fined and not Ertz considering Ertz's actions were technically in defense of his QB while Reid had no reason to hit Wenz after the ball was gone.

The fine was on the "unnecessary hit" on ertz, it literally says it in the link.

This is BS.  Ertz was looking for a cheap shot on Reid, and Reid took his ass down.

How do they fine him for the Ertz stuff, but not the Wentz late hit? Ertz initiated that bullshit because of the roughness ok Wentz...this fuging league man

I'm assuming he was flagged for both maybe, I didnt tune in until the 4th

Well, the refs called 2 fouls on it. One on Reid and the other on Ertz which offset so it resulted in a replay of the down. I'm not sure but if it was two on Reid and one on Ertz then it would have moved the ball in their favor wouldn't it? NFL rules are hard to keep track of in certain situations lol.

You don’t have to be flagged for something to receive a fine

True, though I would assume they would be more concerned with the hit on Wentz considering the whole "Protecting the QB" stuff they have been emphasizing this season, which is why I figure there was a mix up some where. I don't know, like I said, hard to tell with how the NFL deals with fines.

During the broadcast they said Reid wasn’t flagged for the hit on Wentz, saying he could have missed the fact he got rid of the ball.  They said it was offsetting UC flags on Reid and Ertz for the tussle.  Therefore they should both get fined.

Yeah you're right. Just got a little better quality video of it and the refs didn't throw a flag until the whole Ertz thing. I'm surprised Wentz didn't make a bigger fuss than he did about that hit with the refs. So in this case, yeah, either fine both or neither of them.

    • That's a good one too, there's mineral pills and allll sort of other methods and supplements. I heard one way from a poor guy coaching, his method was drinking pickle juice. Still the proven easy soultion- just drink water.....like my god is that too much to ask??? I just feel this is pros....Its YOUR responsibility to be on field. Most times this is preventable, no excuses.  This missed times hurts his chances to make the team, especially a late 6th rounder on a now deep WR roster.  Now Horn gets to ride the Jstew/funch special bike while WRs are passing him on the depth chart...
    • I had the Tmac is the best/smartest course of action many months ago, I just bought into the rumored Walker talk(not cause I was a fan). I knew there was no fear on the offense side, unless someone wants to explain 35 year old AT as a threat.... No one to dictate coverage or get respect. Hubbard is good, but not to the point of worrying about if he's in the game or not. They needed a legit pass catcher and it had to come from the draft either 1st pick or 2nd. I tried to explain in many threads and posting, not many bought my sales pitch. Dan and company had the same thoughts tho...... I always was a huge Tmac fan, but turka21 just blew away anyone on the topic of Tmac. I let him do all my talking after it was clear he could handle any and all angles with Tmac. He killed it and if not, Id had 100 more posts about why Tamc was the 999999 IQ pick. ____________________________   Dan Morgan, my gods did he have one hellacious Duty to fix the Panthers. Not only were they the least talented, but he didn't have 1st(which was the #1 overall pick) or a early 2nd to aid in this rebuild. Not to mention the cap was not in great shape when you consider the level of talent attached to the contracts. Honestly its NOT even close to being over, he deserves another full season after this year to even get this team above water. I know this feels like my mind could be cloudy with hopuim panther gas, but it does feel and look like the team has improved. You listed off the free agents and with knowing all will not workout, there's still hope that Dan has solved the DL, just like he did with the OL. I mean I watched years and years of hernaiy and gettlegut try to fix OLs and DLs and besides some fuke deals they never did. I mean gettegut used his first two draft picks on DTs in star and KK, and that fixed the DL for the next four years.  Still not to say Im marveled over the moon, but I do feel he's accomplishing one hell of a rebuild in the ultra crazy modern NFL era. *In a short time-line* *without all the draft picks and cap space*. He also had to clean up the Brian Burns and BY situations. You know if BY didn't have those last 9 games, Dan would be finding a new QB on top of rebuilding this swamp mansion in hurricane alley. Then he got the giants to bite on a 8 sack 30 million per guy for 2nd and two 5ths(one future).  You can pick apart the players he picks, but nearly ALL trades the Panthers have won the value. I have been very impressed with that part.....(just wish they had better scouts.....ugh) I am looking forward to this vision, I hope the fans can remain realistic patient. (lololooll)
