Allen should be suspended for the length of time it takes for schaub's knee to heal. It was obviiously low, and intentional. The guy on top saw it coming and helped to push him into it. He should be suspended too.

He wasn't suspended. Just fined. I did not see where they said how much or anything like that. BS!

$50,000 fine. Allen is appealing, of course.

Pitts apparently separated Allen's shoulder in the same game. Retaliation?

I sure hope so, even if the Texans won't admit to it.

I'm pretty sure that was Brisiel - not Pitts. Allen was quoted as saying it was Pitts but I think he's got his names mixed up. My DVR shows it as Brisiel. Brisiel put a Haynesworth-like pancake on him and that was the play Allen came out of the game favoring his shoulder....

Perhaps it wasn't a direct retaliation but I'm sure everyone on that O-line knew where all the disruption was coming from...

Winston was quoted as saying the OL didn't know of Allen's cheap shots until after the game and if they had known before then they would've retaliated. So no, I don't think Breisel's hit was retalitation.

Don't worry. After this game I am sure Sage will watch film and figure out that turning the ball over is really holding back his development as a QB. I am sure we will see a whole new QB next week after he figures that out.
