    At least Mark is still standing after a bunch of cheap shots.

    I didn't get a good look at this penalty too well, but the Chiefs got called on a lot of ticky-tack stuff in that drive. Don't think it matters but the refs were pretty brutal on them that drive.

    Hard to believe the redskins guy that hit him after the whistle wasn't fined. Absurd if true.

    Yeah Barnes isn't getting anything.

    The whistle was blown and Barnes was at least 3 yards from Sanchez at that time. He had plenty of time to redirect. He wasn't going to pull up in time, but he could have ran around him.

    I think that is the 3rd or 4th fine for a hit on San chez but at least this time they actually threw the flag.

    Yes it is nice to see the flag get thrown. I hated all the hits Mark took that were illegal and only a fine came out of it a few days. Some of those flags would have helped us field position wise.

    Especially in that Baltimore debacle. There was definitely 2 or 3 hits in that game that were dirty as can be, with no penalty.
