The Fight

During the Tennessee Titans and the Houston Texans Andre Johnson and Cortland Finnegan ripped off each other’s helmets and began to fight. The brawl lasted about 10 seconds, but was worth it. Finnegan tried to be physical with, in my mind, the top wide receiver in the league by putting his hands into Johnson’s face. Andre didn’t really appreciate the gesture and ripped of Cortland’s helmet, which then was followed by Cortland ripped off Johnson’s helmet. This is when Andre Johnson went to work, dropping haymakers on Finnegan.


After all was said and down both players were ejected from the game and rightfully so. Although Jeff Fisher couldn’t figure out why Finnegan was ejected and did his usual dump founded look up at the podium. The NFL will not tolerate any fighting during a game regardless if you threw a punch or not. If you were involved you are ejected plan and simple.
