I think the hit was clean. It is ridiculous that the NFL fined Ward for it. The recent influx of fines on players for big hits is unbelievable. Ward's hit was really clean, he went heads up with him and hit him. There was nothing dirty about it.

i agree with ryan that the hit was clean the nfl was going a little far when they fined him.

I also believe the NFL has started to take this topic a litte to far sometimes and sometimes they get it right on point. The NFL should let the refs handle the tackles during the game.
