Jeremy Lane hit

[Chukarhawk]

The clip being shown on NFLN shows Harbaugh grimace and immediately look up to see if it was seen by a ref.

so this is actually being reported on? first I have heard that.

 

[Chukarhawk]

just saw the report on NFLN. Funny, they didnt even identify the individual involved.

 

[253hawk]

Looks like Ray Hicks, a strength and conditioning coach. Not Quinton Dial.

 

[NorthDallas40oz]

It was absolutely Quinton Dial. Even some media outlets in the SF Bay area are saying so.

It's also much ado about very little, in the grand scheme of things. This is a guy who's a long-shot to even make the Niners' 2014 team, so what difference does it make if he's suspended.

 

[theENGLISHseahawk]

Harbaugh's reaction says it all.

If that guy isn't fired by the Niners then something isn't right.

 

[Dtowers]

Fine the team. Dock them draft picks. Way worse than Tomlin's dance moves as a player was violently blasted with a cheap shot.

 

[Galen96]

It was absolutely Quinton Dial.

You really think that guy is 305lbs? No way is it Quinton Dial.

It is much ado about nothing i the sense of the outcome of the game or the importance of the person who did it. However, in terms of the integrity of the game, they cannot let something like this go unpunished. If it gets swept under the rug, it says very bad things about the NFL. I think it already says bad things about the media that I haven't seen anything about it (though it does sound like NFLN is on point).

 

[Dtowers]

It isn't getting swept under the rug. NFL is looking into it and based on the Tomlin incident I think they make it a heavy fine at the very minimum.

 

[253hawk]

In 2010, Sal Alosi (ironically also a strength and conditioning coach for the Jets) stuck his leg out to hit a gunner and got a 25K fine and a year's suspension with no pay. I think the Jets sent him packing, too. If you think this is going to get swept under the rug and is much ado about nothing, you're delusional.

FWIW, Dial adamantly denied that was him in the video

 

[BobinLaConner]

I tweeted a clip of this sideline hit to NFL network last night and asked why nobody was covering this, but I'm guessing that countless other similar tweets/emails were getting to the networks as the story was gaining steam in the social media

 

[Highlordb]

It was intentional.....Harbaugh see's lane coming and steps back...this jackarse steps in with his shoulder hoping to hit Lane....Fine his arse..

Who cares? Don't care what they do to this one guy, what are they going to do to the team? And after all the crap we had to swallow from HairBall about Adderall, I'd like to see him get some bad press for a change!

 

[Scottemojo]

Harbaugh would not say who it was in his latest presser, but did confirm it was not a player.

Quinton Dial is off the hook.

 

[Jville]

If teams are going to be held accountable by the NFL for sideline behavior, they have no choice but to discipline and fine the 49er organization.

 

[Bullmeister]

cheap shot... LOOK AT LANE'S HEAD.. HIS JAW WAS HIT.

`

You are right! Please ignore my original post.

HE WAS HIT!

I believe if Lane is in on that play the Hawks recover the ball after Lockette knocks it lose. Instead it laid on the ground for what seemed like an opportunity

 

[Hawks46]

If it was a coach, we're talking fines + draft picks.

If it was a player, they would punish the player individually.

Blown up, this looks much more egregious. I see something being done about it for sure.

This is a great point! Lane for sure gets that fumble if not impeded by a cheap shot from a coach!
