When a player from The U warns . . .

. . . you to "Stop doing what you're doing," especially when you've been hitting him with cheap shots all game long, AND you throw the first swing at him, don't be surprised when this happens.

I'm not excusing Johnson's actions at all. I'm just saying.

Also, Finnegan looks like Pauly-D.

I've watched Finnegan make some excellent plays during his time with the Titans, but he definitely goes overboard annoying and taunting the other team. He also draws some pretty stupid penalties sometimes that greatly hurt the team. Most all of these could be avoided if he'd dial back his attitude.

Johnson could have handled this better but hopefully the fight will remind Finnegan his childish antics after plays should not and will not be tolerated in the NFL.

While this fight doesn't help the team, I feel the Titans have a bigger problem finding a good QB who can finish an entire game.

I hear JaMarcus Russell is free. He's already worked out with the Dolphins and Redskins.

I've got Andre Johnson on my fantasy team, so I'm hoping he gets a fine and no suspension, but I'm skeptical that it will happen like that. Most likely Johnson gets a game, Finnegan gets two.

Finnegan deserved it. A.J is a pretty mild tempered person, and for him to go off like that, Finnegan must have been really running his mouth something bad.

Oh that makes more sense. I didn't get to see the game, so I was going off Sports Center. But messing with a players face-mask on every down will definitely get you beat. I really don't see how Finnegan thought he could take on A.J. That dude is a giant with freakish athleticism.

It was obvious Finnegan was waiting until him and Johnson were out in the backfield, away from the eyes of officials. The face jamming happened on run plays where nobody was looking at them.  It explains why, if you watch the video, the first thing Johnson does when he snaps is grab Finnegan by the face mask and wrench off his helmet.
