Evidence:
-Week 16 vs 49ers
-Scott McCloughan's drunken ravings prior to that game
-That douche MRob yuckin' it up on the sidelines after he failed to knock KW out for the season (and therefore sparing us all the NFCCG debacle)
-The injuries inflicted on other 49ers players during that game
Investigate their a**es NOW!

Don't care. This is a mans game. I'm sure these guys are not "taking it easy on tackles" just because they arnt getting rewarded for hard hits.

I bet the 49ers have at some point or another.... Ravens I'm sure, Steelers yep... all the physical teams you have to believe did something like this. I don't see why this is a shocker, to me it's the same as a player having incentives in his contract for playing better. OMG! No! Never want guys to get hurt but you can't go 16 games without an injury regardless of how hard you try

Two things wrong with all of that. One, the physical teams don't HAVE to pay players for big hits - that's simply the way they play. You think Patrick Willis needs a cash incentive to lay someone out? James Harrison sure as hell doesn't! This is an example of a coach using a poor motivation tactic, to try and inspire players to do what they should already be doing. Perhaps Gregg Williams should hire Mike Singletary as an assistant motivational speaker?
Two: It's not the same as a player having incentives in his contract, as those incentives are documented and affect the salary cap. These cash payouts are not, and therefore each and every one of them is a violation of salary cap rules.

Every team. Just like in baseball.
But there is a difference between trying to injure someone and winning a pot for best hit or something like that.

Seattle seems like a team that would do something like this. Pete Carroll is just a douche. I could see the Jets doing something like that as well.
Also Detroit,
Also Detroit,
