Was Urlacher fined?

Just curious if Urlacher got fined for that facemask on Portis. Roy Williams got fined for the hit on Gardner and this was worse IMO. At least this time they threw the flag.

That's a good question. Wasn't LaVar fined for a facemask against Tiki? My feeling is that Urlacher won't be fined because they did throw a flag. I don't know for sure but something tells me LaVar's fine was because no flag was thrown...as if LaVar should be punished for the ref's on field mistake

I've never heard of a fine for a facemask, but they ought to give him one. Portis' head snapped back so hard I was sure he was going to be out the rest of the game.

If Lavar deserved one, Urlacher totally did. Remember, Portis had ALREADY hurt his neck in that game. Seemed like a complete cheap shot, witht the aim to get Portis out of the game. But Clinton was too tough.

I heard about that facemask on the news...it was in the third quarter I think...but was it actually a penalty?

The fines are starting to get a little crazy

Yes, it was a penalty (15 yarder), but if the league wants to stay consistent, there should definitely be a fine. They have fined players for much less.

The league needs to at least review it because it looked a lot more vicious than Lavar's.

Does anyone know a site where people can check for fines that have been assigned? I would like to know if the officials from the Dallass game were ever punished, as well as whether or not Urlacher got the fine he deserved. I checked NFL.com, but that site doesn't seem to discuss fines at all.

Arrington would probably be suspended if he ripped on someone's mask like that
